A fun fish and chips, I mean sports, weekend

The Braves are Mark's favorite baseball team so as we prepared to move here he was excited for the possibility to see a game. He found a weekend where they were playing at home and that the Falcons (football) had a Monday game. Then he called a few of his siblings to see if they wanted to come join us. Two brothers and a sister came and we had a great time together. Here are the pictures of the weekend.

We started things off by going to Adriana's first soccer game!

Turner Field

Abigail and Mark. The kids enjoyed all the excitement and the girls learned "Take Me Out to The Ball Game" from their cousin Jamie.

One of the big sites here is Stone Mountain. It really is amazing to see this huge boulder/mountain among all the trees and hills. They say this is the Mt. Rushmore of the south. It has 3 leaders from the Confederate army; Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, and Jefferson Davis. Quite the mountain. It is in a beautiful area and we had a nice time seeing the mountain and grounds.

I love how Abigail is all cozied up.

On Monday we went downtown to see the Atlanta Aquarium. It was awesome and the kids were in heaven!

One more try

Are you as big as a beluga?

Of course Nemo was one of the biggest attractions. When they saw a clown fish in the tank they all started yealling, "Nemo, Nemo, Nemo!"

It was a great weekend and fun to have some family come visit us.
