So, we wanted to plan a special one-on-one trip with our littles when they turned 10, and with our oldest turning the magic number later this month + our favorite Tigers heading to the CFP National Championship in Arizona, we thought that the perfect little getaway surprise!
When I think of B, I think of Clemson, football, hiking (really nature and anything outside), and presidents, so here we go!

From getting up close and personal with all of the important trophies...
to getting autographs from some of his favorite players of the past...
we had a wonderful time...
even if our favorite team didn't come out on top.
We also made time to get in a little presidential history, of course, by visiting the Roald Amundsen Pullman Car at the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale...
Built in 1928, and now listed on the National Historic Register, the Roald Amundsen is best known for being used by every president from
Herbert Hoover through Dwight Eisenhower. In 1940, President Franklin Roosevelt and Canadian Prime Minister W. L.
McKenzie King signed the agreement that provided for the joint defense
of North America, now known as NORAD...
Before catching our flight home, we got in a little exercise, too, with an afternoon climb to the top of Camelback Mountain...
All in all, a great little getaway with our most favorite 10 year old!
