Atlanta 09

Sampling all the different flavors at World of Coke






A. Rod takes the plate!


This past week Jeremy and I got the opportunity to go to Atlanta for a couple of days...ALONE!! I got Jeremy tickets to see the Braves and the Yankees play for Father's Day. Both of our moms are in town, so we knew this would be the perfect time for a little getaway. We arrived in town Tuesday afternoon and saw the game that night. We had great seats and it was perfect weather. The next day we went downtown and checked out the World of Coke museum. It was really cool, we checked out tons of Coke memorabilia and even saw a 4d virtual reality movie about Coke. The tour ended with sampling all the different coke flavors from all over the world. It was basically a room full of fountains and you go down the line tasting each one, we tried about 30 different flavors!! Jeremy works at New York Prime in Myrtle Beach, but there is also one in Atlanta. A friend of Jeremy's that used to work at the one here is now an operating partner in the Atlanta location, so we went there for dinner and visited his friend. Afterwards, we jumped on the subway and headed over to try to catch some of the baseball game. We were able to get in around the 4th inning and had nosebleed seats, but we still enjoyed it. Thursday, we headed home, eager to see our little girl!! We missed her so very much, but knew she was in good hands. Even though we missed our baby girl terribly, we knew it was important to invest time into each other as well. All in all, we had a great time and Isabelle was able to spend some quality time with her grandmas!

Amber, I am so sad we didn't get a chance to catch up while you were driving. I didn't get your message until Wed, and my mom and sister were in town then so needless to say I didn't have a second to call. However, we must catch up soon! I will be heading to OBX tomorrow and will be there until the 5th, so I'll try you while we're driving. Hope to talk to you soon:) Give Isabelle a big kiss from us!
