Family Fun Day

Today we decided to spend the day together as a family. We wanted Brock to do something fun so we took him to the IMAGINE IT!! Children's Museum in Atlanta. We had a great time! Brock got to play in the balls, with a train, in the work zone, in the sand, paint a picture, tumble on the mats, fish, and much more. I really suggest this place if you have children under 8 and are looking for something for children to do in the Atlanta area. We certainly will take Brock again. After we left the museum we decided to walk over to Olympic Park. It was neat to see and to remember that in 1996 the Olympics were in Atlanta. We then headed to The Varsity. You just cannot go to Atlanta without eating at the famous Varsity. Brock was exhausted and slept on the way home. We had a great day together and we hope that you did too!!

Lunch at The Varsity
We ended the day with our friends Jason, Megan & McKenzie at the new Japanese Steakhouse in Douglasville. We had a great time and Brock got to experience the habachi grill for the first time. (I usually do not eat Japanese food but did not want to pass up a great time of fellowship with our friends. )

Wow, that museum looks cool. I am glad you had a great time as a family. Weekends are fun to do stuff like that. I dont think I have been to the Varsity, but I see it all the time when we drive thru town.

We so wished we could have seen all of you on our short stay in Atlanta earlier this month. We definitely will be coming back and we all need to go to that museum! It looks like tons of fun!
