Oh boy! This one gave me a run for my money today. He decided to run over and push the emergency button on top of Stone Mountain 😳 This included loud sirens, bells, flashing lights and a rushing emergency crew. Y’all. I cannot even. Then later in the day, after many conversations about why we don’t push those buttons sans emergency, he pushed the emergency button in the elevator at the MLK Center. Yes, Jonah is living his best life.

ps: this photo looks a bit scary, but he’s totally safe. The top is expansive and fenced in. There is not a drop off directly behind him 😊

No bites, just bickers

On our way home a sweet couple stopped to ask if the fish were biting down at the dock. Nope, no biting fish, only bickering kids. 🙄😂 At least it looked peaceful!

The frozen mill

We are ready for some warmer temps but the frozen mill we visited sure was pretty. As we walked up there was a family taking pictures. I quickly offered to take a family photo of them and the mom was so appreciative. She said she’s never in their vacation photos and quickly handed over her dslr saying she hoped I could figure it out. I just grinned and said I’d try lol. She gushed over them on the back of her camera and was so thankful. It was a fun way to start our adventure. The kids had fun exploring and breaking off thick chunks of ice. Jonah busted it on the […]

He loves covered bridges almost as much as I do.

She’s a creative

She writes fiction novels (her current book has 22 chapters and counting), she draws, paints, crochets, sews. She’s always creating something. I worried that downsizing our stock of creative supplies would be hard for her but she’s risen to the challenge. Today she made a bow and arrow. A few days ago she made Jonah a fishing pole. Give that girl some string and some nature and she’s good to go.

When day breaks

It’s definitely not my favorite thing to arrive at a new campground after dark. But it is my favorite thing to watch these boys wake up and discover a new beautiful view from their bed when day breaks. They love the surprise when it’s this beautiful. If we land next to the camp bathroom, not so much.
