My first trip to Georgia in 2 YEARS.

That's right friends. This last week was the first time I had been back to Georgia since being married. Two years is way too long to go without seeing family. Turns out it's just enough time to forget how much mosquito bites itch. I'll go over what went down that week though okayy? {Warning : photo overload.}

Wednesday

Let me start by saying we arrived in Georgia at roughly 9:30pm on Tuesday evening. So Wednesday was our first official day of activities. We ( I ) woke up early with the baby. My mom and I went shopping because I only packed enough diapers and formula for the airplane rides {on purpose I might add. } I also had to get binkies because Zoe managed to lose half of hers on the plane. While there my mom got us all Braves shirts because we were going to the game that day. Gotta represent. I also should add it was Gregg's first baseball game EVER. He says it was more fun than he expected. My mom also bought me some REAL jeans. Not stretchy elastic waisted ones. Sure they're a bigger size than I'd like but we'll get to that later. I'm just glad I have them because I look AND feel good in them , and that's what counts right?

Friday

Then on Friday my baby sister graduated {with honors} from High School. It was a really great graduation as far as graduations go. Short , sweet , and to the point. Zoe was traumatized however every single time a family cheered for their graduate. I'm talking full on pouty , red face , bawling with tears running down her face crying. So I took her down to the grass away from the stands so she wouldn't get so upset. That helped a lot.

 Saturday we went to my cousins graduation , and took family pictures. That was pretty great. I love that we were able to take a 4 generation picture for both my mom and dad's side of the family , but this is the only picture that I managed to snag off my mom's computer. 4 Generations of Women. Aren't we a lovely bunch ?

Monday we were able to make a beach trip for a few hours. Zoe's first beach trip in fact. The bottom left hand picture pretty much sums up how she felt about the water. She was so whatever about it. She didn't even touch the sand. Mostly she just wanted to play with the strings on the beach bags. Maybe she'll like it more when she's older.

Friday

 Zoe also took time out to perfect her dunking skills. She still needs a little help as you can see. 

Anyways. After looking at graduation pictures and family pictures I discovered I'm really what I like to call "Large and in charge." Meaning that I could stand to lose a little a lot of weight. So I told Gregg we were going to start exercising and eating healthier to which he replied " I'll do it with you , except you can't cry." I told him I could in fact cry. It was allowed. He replied " Fine you can cry , but you can't quit." To which I responded DUHHH. 

So we're starting our new eating habits on Sunday, so if you have any healthy and delicious {or just filling} recipes , send them my way. That would be very awesome of you and we can both proceed to pretend that the following picture never happened existed
