GA Vacation - Chamblee & Yellow River Game Ranch

We stayed at Josh's Aunt Barbara's house in Chamblee, and it was wonderful!!! She has a park less than 2 blocks away, which was so fun for the girls! We just loved soaking up the warm sunny weather!

Tada!

Aunt Barbara's house - before Josh trimmed the bushes! lol

Then, Jane & Rachel took us to Yellow River Game Ranch, where Josh & them had gone as kids. Basically a wild animal petting zoo! It was great! Josh & Leah especially enjoyed feeding the deer!

Bekah.. poor sweet Bekah. I helped her feed a donkey a cracker, and the donkey's soft lips touching her hands scared her and she screamed hysterically! Poor thing..

But she LOVED the little goat kids..

Yeah.. we need this sign at our house!

GA Vacation - Aquarium & Centennial Olympic Park

We spent a whole day visiting the Georgia Aquarium and Centennial Olympic Park while we were in GA, and it was such a fun day! (Probably my favorite day) Jane, Rachel & Barbara came with, and we met up with Uncle Mark. It was a great day! We all had a blast!

Getting a private tour of the Aquarium, thanks to Uncle Mark!

I LOVE this shot I took of Bekah.. I call it "Wonder" :)

Bekah kept trying to touch the fish through the glass.. it was so cute!

The HUGE viewing room.. to the world's largest aquarium!

Uncle Mark, General Manager at the Centennial Oylmpic Park in downtown Atlanta, gives us a private tour of the park!

Leah adapted to the weather like a true Georgian.. "I'm Cold!" (It was 74 degrees out!)

Flags circling the pavillion, one representing every country that hosted the Olympics

The Fountain of Rings (The Olympic Rings!)

The Fountain Water Show clip! Mark gave us a special show which included all 9 songs, and it was SO great! Leah especially loved it, as you can see her dancing on the video! It was so neat to see the fountain timed with the music! Very cool!

The Flag of Nations Sculpture (I think it was called)

One flag for every country represented at the Olympics

Walking!

Thanks to Uncle James & Auntie Savannah for this fun push-car toy for Bekah on her birthday.. it has really jump-started her walking ability!!! :) She is LOVING it! She goes everywhere in her little car! Plus, tonight alone she took 5 steps unaided! WOW! What a fast learner! We are so proud of our big girl! Thanks guys.. what a great gift! :)
