Atlanta Whirlwind Trip

We spent a couple days in Atlanta last week. But if I list all the things we did you will think we were there a week (especially considering we had a one month in tow).

We went to the Dwarf House (first Chick-fil-a, that happens to serve beef), Georgia Aquarium, Children's Museum, Braves baseball game, Lennox Mall, and Legoland. Of course the events we preplanned (Aquarium and ball game) the girls found a lot less entertaining then the last minute trips to legoland and museum.

Here are my three favorite ladies all kicking their legs in the hotel bed. I really enjoyed this moment as they all played together.
 I enjoyed this sight as well!
 The whole time at the aquarium Reese asked to go back to the hotel and Brady was concerned about missing the dolphin show... but we got some cute pictures ;)

 You know I have the responsibility to raise my kids right and teach them to collect as many pressed pennies as possible.


 I had to grab a couple of pictures of Elli Dew on her first vacation!
 I thought the overhead river was pretty cool!
 Gotta love Reese's scared face!
 The aquarium tunnel

 Proof we were in Atlanta ;)
 After walking around for thirty minutes, Reese got really excited about the big bottle and asked to have her picture taken with it! Look at that sassy pose!
 With time on our hands we walked to the Children's museum, we only had 45 minutes until closing, but the girls loved EVERY minute there.
 I mean who wouldn't love to slide down a banana!
 Here is the fam in their Giants PJs, ready for the game the next day.
 Game day thumbs up
 Karl took the older girls to the ball game while I stayed behind with Elli so she wouldn't be exposed to the heat.
 Karl got ticketed behind the Giants dugout, this was the view from their seats!!!!

 On the way to Atlanta Karl found out he will be promoted next fiscal year, this is a big accomplishment for him. Here he is telling his youngest his exciting news.
 Our last adventure was in Legoland, this was the girls' favorite stop!


We really had a blast in Atlanta, but as always the time went too quickly!

Hot Hot-Lanta

Even though I have so much I could blog about right now, I am having well not writers’ block, but I guess writers’ laziness.

 

We recently went on a weekend trip as a family to Atlanta. Here are some pictures to give you a snip-it of the fun filled weekend.

 

World of Coca-Cola:

WE each stood in front of our favorite bottle:

They had all 160+ beverages that are made under the coke name around the world, Karl tried the Bahrain one first, ironically he never tried it when he lived there.

Girls got to try soda for the first time in their lives. Not fans…

We got a kick out of this bumper sticker we saw:
