I gave them the "list" of tourist things to do in Atlanta, so they could decide what they wanted to do when they were on vacation. As always, it is crazy hot here from mid-June through the end of August. So, the list definitely had to include places we could cool-off!
While they were here we:
- Went to Chili's
- Aunt Sherry bought Ava and Liam a cookie as a treat from Subway
- Checked out the local batting cages
- Visited the park along the Chattahoochee River
- Shopped at Wallyworld (aka Wal-Mart)
- Went to Six Flags Over Georgia Amusement Park, where Doug met us after work.
- Had a "Build-Your-Own" Sundae night at the house
- Went to Ava's gymnastics class
- Doug, Daymian and Jordan practiced in the batting cages
- Ate lunch at Arby's
- Went to Whitewater water park. Doug ran with the boys while I hung with Mom and kiddos.
- Went to church
- Ate Firehouse subs (yum!)
- Had Mexican for dinner
- Visited the "dollar store"
- Aunt Sherry gave Ava and Liam some fun stickers and toys
It was fun to show Mom, Sherry and the boys all of the "must visit" places in Atlanta. We hope they had a great time and got to check a few places off their list. :-)
After they had a tire blow in Mom's car when they were traveling down to Georgia, we're thankful they arrived here safely and made their way back to Michigan safely.
Peace, love and family,
Shelly, Doug, Ava and Liam

Post-Thunder River. Anything to cool off from the Georgia summer heat!
About to get soaked!
Soaked! Ava loved it. :-)
