Planning a Road Trip

It's no secret that I love the holidays, especially Christmas. When I was trying to decide where to go on my next road trip I just couldn't narrow it down. There's just too many great places that I want to go. So I've decided that at the end of November I will be heading to....
Graceland! 
And yes, I know I just got back from there but I've heard the Christmas decorations they do are fabulous and we all know how much I love Christmas! From what I've seen on the internet and heard Graceland decorates each room for the holidays.
Elvis supposedly loved Christmas and use to have it decorated when he was still alive so they've continued the tradition. I've also heard that there's a tree in every room.... um that's my kind of place! 

(Elvis reading his draft letter at Christmas)
I can't wait to see it again and decorated for the holidays!! November is going to be a busy month because I've also got a second road trip planned for this month! More on that later but yes... it's Christmas related!

That will be awesome to see it at Christmas. I'm really excited about Christmas decorating this year and I'm usually not.

I have only heard wonderful things about Graceland at the holidays! I wish it wasn't so far of a hike for us so we could check it out too!

I still have yet to go to Graceland. Which is sad considering it is only a 4-5 hour drive from home(Jackson, not Mobile).
I am definitely ready to deck everything out in Christmasness!
