Weekend Family Vaca Whirlwind.

Matt & I have been wanting to take a road trip for quite some time. I've been dying to get out of this heat & experience a little fall weather. So we packed up what seemed to be our entire home (thanks be to having a one year old) and took a quick Thursday-to-Sunday trip to Georgia. So glad we were able to visit some special people & spend some time catching up. Also? Emery still holds the title for the best travel buddy. I would honestly choose vacationing with her over many, many people :)

Our first stop was visiting Matt's sister - who now resides in Atlanta. While we were there, we took Emery to the aquarium.

Emery LOVED these huge fish tank walls.

And she made some friends.

We found a Beluga sign!

She really wanted to get in that water.

The next day we visited one of my favorite couples - the Lowry's. They showed us around Athens & we  got to see a little bit of why everyone loves that city & UGA.

We got our fix of fall weather and leaves. That is for sure :)

Emery has no idea what to do in leaves.

Last, we visited one more couple - the Hambricks - whom we've known for years. (I should have taken more photos of all these people!!) Such a sweet few days filled with lots of love and catching up. I'm slowly but surely talking Matt into residing somewhere with a more distinct change in seasons. I'll get back to you on it...
