Laura's visit

This past week my sister Laura and her two daughters, Jamie (7) and Lindsey (4), came to visit us and feel the Atlanta sun. We had such a great time with them and are so grateful they made the voyage! Laura did such a great blog post about the trip you should read it too! Click here.
One day we went to Stone Mountain. This guitar player had an amazing blue grass voice and performed several songs just for us!!
We saw several demonstrations at Stone Mountains, including this blacksmith, where Audrey made music on this triangle. There was so much to see and do here, even a surprising run through the sprinklers!
One day we went to the Botanical Gardens.
Laura is a great photographer--isn't this shot artistic?Another great photo by Laura. And a happy baby!
The children's fountain at the garden was a big hit with the girls.
We spent as much time as possible at the pool, soaking up the sun.
Thursday we watched Carlie while her parents packed up their moving truck, and of course we went swimming.
Audrey is obsessed with shoes. She was delighted with the several new pairs of shoes lying around with three girls visiting, and she mastered the art of wearing flip flops and wedges. She wore these shoes around like she was born wearing them. And yes, still does downward dog.

Oh I recognize the pool! I can't believe I moved there a year ago almost and now we're moving again in a few weeks. It looks like you had an awesome time with your sister-I hope everything is going good :)

LOVE YOU!

I never appreciated swimming until I lived in the Caribbean! I think the NYC outdoor pools open this week and I can't wait! I'm glad you're enjoying the sun so much. :0)
