Hello!
ONLY TEN DAYS UNTIL WE FLY HOME.........WOW I can't believe it. As excited as I am to see everyone that we love and miss, I gotta be honest- a small part of me is feeling sad to leave this beautiful area and all the fun memeories we have had in such a short period of time. I feel blessed to have been able to spend our summer here in the South. I Love it!
The following pics are mostly from the Coke factory while Whitty was here and the Whistle Stop cafe (Fried Green tomatoes was filmed there) LOVE the BBQ sandwitch- THE SECRETS IN THE SAUCE. The stone pic is the grave sight of Frank Bennett.
Deathly Hallows Down
I finished the longest book I have ever read in my LIFE yesterday and it was a rewarding and sad moment. It's really not THAT long and it's such easy reading but Harry Potter was GREAT in my opinion. I feel like J.K. Rowling really did a great job at explaining the loop holes in the other books and the ending was nice. I couldn't believe that when the time came to kill off characters, how fast it happened. In one sentence it was done. Don't worry I didn't cry (I know you think I did) but..... I am sad for it to be over. On to my next adventure of a book "I don't know how she does it". For those of you that have not read Harry Potter, Deathly Hallows, I would recommend picking it up soon. :) Heres the link to the book: http://www.amazon.com/Harry-Potter-Deathly-Hallows-Book/dp/0545010225/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-2491175-0495257?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1187788899&sr=8-1

Sky Dive Atlanta
Don't worry it wasn't us that jumped out of a plane. Taylor and I went with our friends that did though to watch. It was a lot of waiting around for the first jumpers to get back but all in all I am glad I went and got to see up close how that all goes down. I actually felt like I would have done it (If I wasn't married to the most wonderful man and had the sweetest baby boy EVER) :) :) so probably not for me in this lifetime.... ! (ps taylor did not exceed the weight limit) :)

Savannah and Six Flags
Well a group of us went to Savvanah this weekend and ate at the great Paula Deens resturant. The food was amazing, Chicken, creamed corn, pancakes, garlic rolls, black eyed peas (ps. those are GOOD), salads, peach cobbler, potatoes and gravy. MMM! I really enjoyed myself. Then we walked around and looked at all the little shops in Savvanah then hit the beach. I had never before PLAYED in the Atlantic Ocean, I loved it a lot. It was sooo warm (MUST warmer then the Pacific. The next day a different group of us went to six flags (James' car group won 2nd place and that was the prize) we had fun. I am still recovering though. The first roller coaster we went on was like the white one at Lagoon but....WAY MORE INTENSE and sooooo jerky. It BEAT us up. I am using a heat pack today it's still that bad. Then we went on two more WAY INTENSE Roller coasters and I was pretty much done for the day (or my stomach was) One of them went 70 MPH, dropped over 175 ft, in the first drop but over 400 ft. total and coverend 8.4 acres of land. WHOA. I rented a wheel chair that day for my foot :) that was cool. I also rode the river water ride 3 times and was SOAKED but... I wanted to stay on that ride cuz I was done w/ the coasters. Six flags had soo much to do, I never knew it was so intense. I have decided though as much fun as it was...I think I'm more of a Disney land ride kind of gal :)

NEED TO KNOW HOW...
How do you post video on here? I am going to see if this works, if not...anyone know how? Here are the latest pics of Taylor playing (his balloon flew into the toilet, don't worry I threw it away and blew him up a new one) and cleaned him all up. Also some pics of the night Ali proposed to Amanda, so sweet.

HARRY POTTER HERE I COME
I feel like I am way behind the times on this one. James even went out at midnight to get it for me and he is more then half way through this book and I'm just getting started (I would not allow myself to start until I had completed one of my original summer reading thingy books) so..... HERE I GO! http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&endeca=1&isbn=0545010225&kids=y&itm=1
SUPERNANNY-IZED
I have completed readingy my Supernanny book by Jo Frost.
http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9781401308100&itm=1 I would say... I will review it in years to come because it does spend a lot of time on "toddler/kid" issues that I am not yet dealing with. Overall it's a quick easy read but not necisarily my favorite book (but did have good ideas) I like her routines and naughty bench approach to discipline. Now I am going to be adding Harry Potter to my reading list and taking off "YOU on a diet" FOR NOW!
Yesterday I was given devastating news......I can't work out for at least a month. Long story short is that I have been VERY active with Tennis this summer (and dance dance revolution) and I have Planters Fasceitous (Sp?) in my right foot. I am now in a large, heavy hot boot cast and have to do physical therapy 2-3 x a week. NOT COOL. I am supposed to be working on my "beach body" for Mexico in Nov. My girlfriends out here brought me "Half Baked" my FAVORITE Ice Cream yesterday. Just what I need when I can't work it off huh. Owell. That's the latest and it stinks (I have to wear a different boot at night, I only lasted a couple hrs. last night and it was too painful so I took it off). Wish me luck.
