The Georgia Aquarium

A little over a week back the hubby sprung the idea of an impromptu trip to the Georgia Aquarium. I am SUCH a planner but I was ecstatic because I love aquariums! I have been wanting to go to the Georgia Aquarium since it opened but something always comes up. My room mate from college lives nearby so I sent her an email seeing if she and her family could meet us there. They were so gracious they asked us to stay with them on our trip. Tim and I both enjoyed the visit. Tim and her hubby stayed up FOREVER playing video games, so it was like heaven for Tim on this trip. LOL! And I of course just enjoyed visiting with a great friend.


We left after work on Friday. By the time we got there it was midnight so we decided to wait until after the Boo's morning nap to actually go in hopes that the day would run more smoothly. She was a little fussy at first and then....

The Princess and this sweetie pie are fairly close in age. They haven't hung out since they were 1, but they were fast friends...they didn't miss a beat! Check out this fun pic I got!

The Princess is still enjoying having her daddy back from Iraq and ofcourse he is loving being able to spend time with his girls. It is evident daily in the smallest of gestures like this one...

Ofcourse the Boo did wake up eventually to enjoy the last half of the aquarium.

I got a few shots that I really thought turned out well. I am still learning alot about 'photography' so when I get something like these I get excited:



At the end of the day there were two little girls still full of energy. Oh and I think this was more fun for them than inside! LOL!

So my friend also has a nikon camera. I mentioned not being able to get a good shot of the girls because they were moving before I could get focused. She said hers would autofocus. Got me thinking, maybe I should read my manual when I got home. Tonight I found the setting that I had set up for MANUAL focus! LOL! So here's to no more blurry pics of kiddos! =) Wish me luck, I have a birthday party this weekend that will test me on that promise!

Hope you all have a blessed night,
