Family

We had an awesome trip to Atlanta to visit Daddy's family. Everyone did very well on the airplanes, which made Mom and Dad very happy and the kids earned their "wings".

Once in Atlanta, we were busy, busy, busy. Here, everyone burned off some extra energy at a great park. It was a bit chilly, which meant that the kids got to wear their fun new hats!

A few shots of Will and Amanda:

Here is Natalie with her cousin, Meaghan:

Natalie convinced Daddy to go down the slide!

To make sure all of the energy was burned off before heading back to house, we got in a couple of games of Red Light, Green Light. Our kids had never played that game before so they thought it was great fun. Uncle Clarence, Aunt Melody and Meaghan showed them how to play while cousin Carson (not pictured) called out the commands.

Back at the house, Will soaked up some affection from Cousin Lizzy and Grandma Zena.

And then hung out with cousin Carson.

Here, Aunt Ann introduces the kids to the English tradition of Christmas crackers.

The audience (Uncle Sheldon, Uncle Clarence and Aunt Melody) look on with great anticipation!

Yay! Prizes and crowns! We like this tradition.

Amanda chills out with Dad.

And then it was time for the grown ups to have dinner and open their crackers.

Later, we were able to capture a nice moment with Grandma Zena.

Aunt Ann and Uncle Sheldon were wonderful hosts, as usual. We greatly appreciate all of the trouble they go through to have all of us in their home. Here is Aunt Ann, Natalie and the wonderful Mocha.

And we close with the big group shot.
