weekend in Atlanta

Last month we got to spend a weekend in Atlanta with Uncle Mark, Aunt Sarah, and the cousins. We were lucky in that we planned the trip when there turned out to be no snow (who would have thought that would be an issue??) and we got to be there for their Valentine's party. The kids spent a lot of time playing indoors and outdoors, we ate a lot of treats and other yummy food, and we watched a lot of the Olympics. We had a great weekend together! I'm glad we got in one more trip down there before the baby comes.

sugar cookies...yummm

They all helped rake and gather these leaves and pine needles into a pile and then brought out the chairs so they'd have an easy way to jump into it.

play-doh

like I said, lots of Olympics-watching

Christine turned 1 just a week or so before our visit. We got her that Elmo and she was SO cute snuggling it!

and another game--all the Cupids

Jamie's favorite part of the night--treats.

The next day all the kids wanted to dress up like Cupids too. Sadly I didn't get a picture of them all together, but here's Jamie.
