2015 ~Sunday, April 12, Spending the day with grandson's at UNA, & Florence Library!

I took the boys with me to church. After church, we ate lunch at Zaxby's. I ordered a Zaxby's Snack Meal with salad, no fries. Nevada ordered a Kickin' Chicken sandwich meal, and Montana ordered hot wings with fries. 
The place was packed; I think everyone got out of the church at the same time, even Arby's was packed.

Then, on our way to the target, we rode to UNA to see the two lions, LEO and UNA. While they were resting, they both moved at the same time to get into the shade.

I stopped to take pictures of the flowing fountain, the historic buildings, the colorful tulips, and the flowering white & pink dogwood trees.

I took the boys to see the new science building at UNA. The building was so big that I couldn't walk far enough back to capture the entire structure in one picture.

We rode to the Florence Lauderdale Public Library, where the boys played on the computer and I listened to James Parker talk about From the Cumberland to the Gulf: Tennessee Troops traversing the Alabama County during the War of 1812.
There were many items about the War of 1812 on display at the library.

This concluded the series about the War of 1812.
I took the boys home and dropped by to see Mike and Hannah.
For supper, my husband brought home Chinese food from New China Chinese Restaurant.
I ate 2 shrimp egg rolls and a chocolate-covered custard donut. My husband ate sesame chicken, white rice, and soup; he had enough leftovers for his lunch.
We spent a quiet afternoon relaxing and watching television.
