Our Atlanta Trip

We left Saturday the 6th early in the morning for our drive to Alpharetta. We had decided that if we kept Belle in the second row and put Liv on the third row, they would fight less...we were right. The trip out was nice...much better than we had expected. Prior to leaving, we had purchased a DVD player with two screens since the girls would have problems watching one screen if they were on separate rows.

We got in that afternoon and went to our hotel. It was SO nice! Then we went to visit Uncle Alan at his fire station and headed onto a nearby mall to go to the American Girl store and Build-A-Bear. Liv got a Samantha book and a minuature doll. Belle made a build-a-bear namd Angel (now known as Amanda). We had Ruby Tuesday's and went back to the hotel so the kids could swim in the pool.



The next day, we went to the Mall of Georgia and Discover Mills Mall. We were pretty shopped out by then. Alan and Cheryl had joined the 5 of us. For dinner, we took them to an Irish Pub. It was gorgeous!







The plan for Sunday was that we would meet up with Alan and Cheryl around lunch time and go to Lake Lanier so the kids could fish. We did that for about an hour or so and headed back to our hotel so we could all swim. We met up with Lee for dinner at Red Robin--GREAT food! Next door to the restaurant was Barnes and Noble so of course we had to run in there! I got the third Twilight book for the trip home and some sticker books for the girls to keep them occuppied.

We hugged and kissed everyone goodbye and went back to the hotel to start packing up. We left that next morning and made it home about 7. It was a fast trip, but a good one!
