Our Trip to Atlanta
We had a very full day today! We are in Atlanta visiting Susi and we had all kinds of fun! It all started this morning at the zoo where we had a "behind the scenes" tour of the reptile exhibit with Susi's friend Dr. Joe. He is the curator of herpetology at the zoo and he let us get up close and personal with frogs, turtles and snakes! Beckett loved it and Helen was a little apprehensive! After a cool and rainy day at the zoo, we went to lunch at The Varsity! Susi has lived here for 7 years and had never been before! It was a treat for us all! After that, we went to my new favorite place....IKEA! Unreal. There are no words to explain how cool this place is! I am ready to re-do the interior of my house! This was the most unbelievable shopping experience! It has been a great day and I am happy to share some pictures with you all!

Beckett found a chair that he liked at IKEA and Susi gave him a lesson about gathering the information he needed. He was making his wish list! It wasn't nearly as long as mine!

Helen LOVED the see-saw at the zoo!

The pandas were cute!

Hey,
Glad you had fun. Can't wait to hear more.
Tell Beckett I can't believe he touched a snake.

You always have great pictures! The varsity is sooooo good. It's been years since I've been. I'm glad you all had a great time. I bet the IKEA store was awesome!
