Smokies to Atlanta


Thursday, Oct. 13th we packed up all of our things and headed to Atlanta, our last stop on this epic midwest roadtrip. We were going to Marietta to see my brother Andy and his wife Emily for 4 days before heading back home. Here are pics of the kids on our road trip. They ate lunch and then slept the rest of the way - easy drive!

What was I thinking giving our 1 1/2 yr old a PBJ sandwich and Cheetos in his car seat???
(Notice the sandwich is next to him...) He sure was happy about it though :)

car nap!

We made great time on our drive so my brother wasn't even home from work yet. We took the kids to a park by his house and he met us there soon after. The kids had TONS of energy to burn off after their naps and 4 hours in the car. And the Cheetos... Cheetos must have given them some energy, right? :)

Friday Andy took us to downtown Marietta where they have a great square with a park in the middle. The kids got to play on this fantastic train. Lydia loved "selling tickets" and telling the "conductor" to take her to the swimming pool :) After the park we wandered around the square and had a yummy lunch outside of a cafe.






The park had all these characters lying around, and Lydia LOVES her Dr. Suess characters!
Might have to do this for Halloween...
