We hit awful accident traffic just outside of Memphis that added 90 minutes to our drive. Brutal. We stoped for the night in Germantown, and I I asked my friend Ardis where we should eat. She directed us to Corky’s and we were easily won by the giant neon pig on the building. Then we found “Soren” on the wall inside! He said “what the heck?! Is that me?!” And the likeness was uncanny.
Corbin ordered pasta with a side of pasta. E pigged out on the complimentary basket of fried pork rinds that no one else could stomach but she inhaled them like candy (and then punished us fiercely the next day with the worst road trip gas and blowouts you can imagine. Ha!) we all ate fried pickles and pork until we could pop.
Once Corbin was thru eating, he took advantage of the near empty restaurant (it was 9 pm, the traffic put a delay on dinner) and wandered over to watch a march madness. It was funny to see a little kid propped up at the bar. He was only there for the tv and has no idea he was kicking back with a bunch of neon advertising what’s available on draft. No one made him get down and he enjoyed a short break from having so many people in his personal space.
It was after 10 when we checked into the hotel and got 2 pack n plays set up. Bedtime is usually very hard for the twins so we prepared for the worst and split our crew between 3 rooms. The boys with my parents. Q and Sloane with Aaron, Reese and the twins with me. The babies were out in minutes. Tender mercy. Everyone slept and it was wonderful.
