Just over three months ago, I surprised my entire family with a trip to Nashville. My wife and I have three children (one boy and two girls) between the ages of six and fourteen, so you can imagine that it can be challenging to find activities to do as a family that everyone enjoys. Although something as simple as picking out a restaurant can be a struggle when we are at home (because everyone is conveniently in the mood for something different), I’m happy to report that during our time in Nashville, all of the bickering and nonsense that I’ve grown so accustomed to dealing with actually went away. Now, I would be naive to believe that it will continue to stay this way, but for the full six days that we were in Nashville, we functioned like a picture perfect family.

If you are looking for a place to go on a family vacation, I cannot recommend Nashville enough. Whether your family is well-behaved or more like mine, there is something about being together in Nashville that will let everyone take a step back and truly enjoy being a family together.
