Sleepover Adventures




This weekend was full of fun for the Atkinson Family. On Friday we all went out to dinner with our good friends the Parros, Mayers, and Sullivans. At dinner we learned that the Mayers are expecting a baby in July. The Parros are expecting in June, so 2009 should make for a very exciting year. And...Avery will have lots of new friends to play with.

On Saturday, we took Avery up to Alpharetta to spend the night with her Grandparents. They took her to Lake Lanier to see the Magical Nights of Lights. It is a light display that is set to music. Avery loved the beautiful lights and loved to be free in the car. Playing in the car is one of her past times now. After you drive through and see all the lights they have a little Christmas wonderland set up for the kids to eat, go on rides, and buy souvenirs. My parents said her eyes were huge when she saw the rides and Christmas trees. They had so much fun! Avery didn't get to bed until after 10 which is her latest bedtime ever. I wish I had sent the camera with them, next time. I think they might make this an annual trip! Meanwhile, Trevor and I enjoyed a neighborhood holiday party, sleeping in, and reading the paper. A few things we don't get to do much of anymore.

Merry Christmas!
