A Preschool Style Sing-a-long

As I have mentioned before, we decided to put C in preschool one day a week. It has turned out to be such a great thing for her and for mommy. She gets to take art and music class every Friday that she goes. She has learned so many things already and had a chance to show Mommy and Daddy all the songs she learned at the family sing-a-long day two Fridays ago.
She knows almost all the words and motions to at least five Christmas songs. Her favorite is Jingle Bells.

What's Cooking?

C was a big help this Christmas making cookies, decorating them and of course--eating them! She loved getting a chance to put on her new apron that Grandma S. made for her and digging in.

Georgia Aquarium

As a self-proclaimed expert discount finder, I am proud to say that I found half off tickets to the Georgia Aquarium. We decided to go to the aquarium this Saturday to help celebrate our first weekend together as a family since M finished up his MBA at Kellogg.

The aquarium is quite impressive. It is a newer facility with plenty to offer the whole family. We spent the morning looking at the sea life. Some of our favorite exhibits included the giant tank of Manta Rays and sharks. They had several whale sharks that measured 30 feet long. You basically walk through a tunnel where the tank is on either side and above you. It was awesome.


Then we saw the beluga whales and visited the penguins where C and M crawled through A very small tunnel to view the penguins up close. C also got to color and decorate a fun little penguin mask.
Later that evening we went to a little town called Roswell and had a wonderful French meal. C was so good at the restaurant that the hostess said, "She was amazing. You can come back anytime." I guess they have had their share of unruly children come to their fancy restaurant.
Congrats on finishing your MBA dearest husband! We love you and are soooooo proud of you.
