Together

Ben only works 2 days this week. We will have lots of family time together. I am really looking forward to that!

Only on that site can you think about how to renovate a kitchen and natural ways to kill fruit flies...in 30 seconds. 

Whew

He had fun!!! He said he hadn't been there in 30 years!!! 

Stone Mountain

In my crazy to take my grandfather who just turned 87 to go to Stone Mountain park for his birthday? I wanted to do something fun and I thought it would be a good idea. We will see after we return today if he likes me still. I am surprising them with this adventure too :)

I researched online of what to do for elderly people for entertainment. The results came back as: birdwatching, bingo, gardening, plays, etc. They have done all of that for crying out loud.  For my grandmother's 80th, we took her to Ireland. Um, we don't do Bingo :) 

So, we will be riding a skylift, train, and possible boat today. 

Through the viewfinder

As I reminisce on my day more, I am even more joyful about my photography. I  purchased a new lens and I have never owned a wide angle lens. It overwhelms me thinking how I have always envisioned my photographs to tell a story, but was limited in my view with my lens. I wanted to jump up and down today because I finally achieved what I wanted to capture in the shot. I had no limits. 

It is hard to describe my joy, but I am looking forward to my upcoming photo opportunities! 

Now, if I can just get my computer cleaned off. 28,000 photos is slowing our laptop down. Ahem....

Toddler free

My parents came down on Tuesday to see all of us, but especially Jackson. We all decided that Jackson would go with them on Wednesday to spend some grandparent time with him. He is having a blast and SO. ARE.WE!  We have been to Atlanta to go shopping, to trivia with friends. We have gone to Callaway Gardens, out to eat, and to a movie! Tomorrow, I get to see my little man and I am excited! I have enjoyed my time with my hubby, but I miss my sweet boy. 

Public restroom

Score! During swimming lessons, Jackson told me he had to go potty! And, he was successful! First time using a public restroom! Yes!!!
