Georgia Vacation

Well it has been a while since I last posted. We just got back from our vacation down in Georgia. The kids did great on the airplane both there and back. The plane we rode was two seats on one side and one on the other. We had planned on me sitting on the one side and Jim and Savannah on the two side. Well it turns out the baby had to be on the side of the two seats because that is where the extra oxygen and the infant life vests were. So I was stuck with both kids while Jim relaxed by himself listening to his ipod and reading his book. Must have been nice. Once we got to the airport we picked up our rental car and headed to Tim and Stacey's. When we got there we headed out to dinner at Taco Mac. It was really good. That was Monday night. On Tuesday we got up early and headed to the Coke museum and the Georgia Aquarium. It was really warm that day, but the kids had a good time. We were meeting my college roommate for dinner and had a little time to kill so we went over to Centennial park for a little bit. It was only a few miles to dinner and all the kids fell asleep. They did pretty well at dinner given how tired they were. I really enjoyed catching up with Michelle. I hadn't seen her in almost two years.

The next day we headed to the Varsity for lunch. It is a very historic place in Atlanta to eat. They serve diner food. The kids had a great time and the food was good. Also kept us from buying anything at the baseball game. We got to the game and sat in our seats which were right in the sun. We decided to move into the shade and it was much better. We were able to stay through the 6th inning. The kids were ready to go. CJ slept through most of the game.

After the game we headed out to Stacey's parents house on Lake Oconee in Reynolds Plantation. We were planning on staying there the rest of the week. It was so nice and relaxing. We went out on the lake, swam in the pool and the kids did a little fishing. Savannah did great wearing her life jacket and got in the lake to swim. She also rode the jet ski with Tim and Stacey. I tried to ski, but couldn't get my big butt out of the water. That's ok maybe next time. Jim was able to go golfing as well. He enjoyed it, but it was pretty hot out. Their house is just a great place to sit and relax. Stacey's mom was very helpful with CJ. She watched him so that we could go to the pool and the lake. We did take him out on the lake once and I think he liked the wind in his hair :) He slept a little too much during the day though. He was back to getting up twice in the night. Hopefully that doesn't last now that we are home. I guess we will see.

All in all it was a great vacation. Hopefully we will get to see the Browns again soon and we would love to go to the lake again. Savannah is already asking for Colin and Sarah. The kids played really well together. Although Savannah started acting like she was older than she was :)
