The City with Big Fish and so much more!

We had the pleasure of a visit to Atlanta last week to see Uncle David, Aunt Stephanie, and Maddie! Matthew had a conference (at which half the ministry world attended) and Grey and I got to spend two days with Steph and Maddie. We, of course, lived the life. Thursday night we went to a cooking class (not with the kids) at Whole Foods. It was done by the man that owns Sugo, a Greek Italian restaurant. It would take me a while to write all the details of class I would like so I will just sum it by saying I have never tasted food so stinkin' good! Let's just say this man roasts garlic for 5 hours and adds a little honey to all things!

Friday morning, the four of us went downtown to the aquarium. This was my second time going but first with Grey and Maddie. I absolutely loved listening to the way that Maddie took it all in. (she's been before but was super excited) Grey really enjoyed the first half. He wanted to lay on the floor in the front of each tank or exibit and see the fish/sea animals eye to eye. There is so much to take in! He had a major lack of sleep last week and so the second half was a little rough due to his extreme exhaustion.
Grey does whatever Maddie does, listens to whatever she says, laughs at her, and thinks she way cool so I'm pretty sure in this picture they are having an intelligent conversation about the fish.

Check out that shark!
As you can tell, Grey had had about all he could handle. Maddie was awesome!

  1. How fun for you all to go to the GA Aquarium. We've still not been. We did go to the Tennessee Aquarium at the end of August. It's really nice too.

    Hope you all are doing well...

    Love ya,
    Aunt Julie

  2. I'm so inspired by your picture taking and your family tradition of apple picking. I think we're going to have to start that next year. The apple picking I mean. The picture taking will need to commence asap. :)
