Family Weekend in Atlanta

We were very excited to travel back to Atlanta for the weekend to celebrate Bonnie's 60th birthday, occurring later this month.  We practiced at home all week teaching Brock to say "Bebe".  He came close with "bay bay", but there is no doubt that he knows who she is :)

Saturday morning, some of the ladies went to get our nails done.  Got in some good catch-up time with Jessica and - thanks to her good taste - my toes are ready for summer.

Brock wanted to be in on the action!

That afternoon, we all gathered at the Poulos's house for Bonnie's birthday celebration.  Brock spent most of the time playing with his cousins, snuggling with Bebe, and eating up the delicious food.  It was great to see all of the siblings and cousins, most of whom we hadn't seen since Christmas.  A special thanks to the Massey's for making a huge sacrifice to come all that way for just a few hours.  And to the Poulos's for hosting everyone :)  It was a great afternoon!

The whole crew!

Sunday morning, we headed to breakfast with Nana and Paw Paw.  Brock wasn't quite sure how he felt about missing his morning nap, but he did a great job at being flexible.  We also got a surprise visit from Barbara and Michael, so great to see them and hear about their recent trip to Germany.

Thank goodness for Nana!

We made a few more stops on the way out of Atlanta and then it was back to TN before the rain hit.

Slept the entire car ride home!

We stopped off in Murfreesboro for a Cinco de Mayo dinner with the Cades.  Terrible service and one very fussy baby at the nearest "Mexican Grille" lead us to Publix and then back to their house for a healthy dinner of cheese dip, hamburgers, and $1.29 pizza.  It was quite a night :)

Thumbs up to never eating here again :)

Always a laugh with this bunch!

We finally made it back home by 11:30pm and somehow managed to unpack it all and get in bed by midnight.  We are a tired crew, but glad with how it all turned out.  What a great start to the month!
