On Friday Andi spent some special time with G-Mama and GG at the Jasmine Tea Room and then to a movie. On Saturday morning I surprised Mike with a night out just for us!! G-Mama watched the kids and they went to the Animal Safari in Pine Mtn. They loved it!! Mike was very surprised and we had a great time! We spent the day in Atlanta in Virginia Highlands and Atlantic Station and then spent the night at the Georgian Terrace Hotel across the street from the Fox, which is where we spent the first night of our honeymoon. It is such a pretty hotel! We had such a special time just hanging out and being together. We had not had a night out like that together in 6 years, so we were due one!!!
Sunday afternoon we all swam together, except Addi who refuses to swim! It was so hot, which we got to fully understand on Monday when we all went to Six Flags! It was the first trip to the park for Landon and Addi and they loved it!!! They both rode the kiddie roller coaster and Landon even rode Splash Water Falls!! I was surprised!! We went to Thomas the Train Thomas Town and the kids did like it, but parents beware it is just as boring as the movies!!
Despite the heat index of 102 degrees we had an awesome time. The little ones wore out around 3 pm, so mom took them home and Mike and I stayed and spent some special time with the older kids. They had us on every roller coaster in the park. It had been a long time since I had ridden a roller coaster, at least since before Landon was born. The biggest one, Goliath, was the tallest coaster I have ever ridden on and it was scary! We had a great time and thankfully no one got dehydrated! The park was dead, probably because of how hot is was and the fact that it was a Monday. We walked onto every ride. That aspect made the heat worth it! I have never drank so much Powerade!!
On Tuesday we went shopping, had lunch with G-Mama and then a friend of mine from highschool named Sharena came over for dinner. It was so good to see her, talk about "old" times and catch up on new ones. We came home Wednesday and have been busy back at home!!
Below are some pictures from Six Flags. I meant to take some pictures of the entire weekend, but was just too lazy. I can blame the heat on there not being alot pictures from Six Flags. Notice in the pictures how sweaty everyone is!!!

Looks hot! I signed up for camp with the girls and got the confirmation yesterday that we are definately going. Now I need to walk around in the blazing heat every day for the next two weeks, just to prepare myself. It is on the border of AL and FL. So humid and hot!!!! I am a counselor this year instead of a nurse. I am looking forward to it, except the nurses cabin was air conditioned, but the kids' cabin won't be. Love your pictures. Miss your family, and I wish we lived closer where our kids could play and we could talk.
Sounds like fun. So glad you and Mike had some special time. That's important. We're headed to Six Flags next week. Hopefully, we'll have a cooler day than you guys.
Wow - what a trip! Sounds like you guys enjoyed your trip! How great that you and Mike were able to spend some time together...we know that that doesn't happen very often! We're planning a trip to Six Flags too - but dreading the heat! So glad the kids enjoyed it!
Looks like you guys were hot! I love the pic of Landon and MIke while Landon is just smiling up at his daddy. Really sweet! Glad you are back!
