On Friday night, Brince, Becca and little Jim Roper, the Shorki, came to visit David and I. We were so happy to see them! Becca and I went for a walk and pedis on Saturday while the boys tried to keep the Dawgs on track. Instead of drowning in tears over UGA's defeat, we hit the lake until my parents and Asa got here. They were able to come up on Saturday afternoon, and we had a booze cruise and late dinner last night. After a slow moving Sunday morning with lots of coffee and a delicious breakfast, us gals hit the trails for another walk at the country club. Post-walk, we had the nicest lunch on the boat again before heading to Lula for the North Georgia Canopy Tour. David brought me a magazine article a few weeks ago that featured the fun activity, and so I thought it would be fun to sign the family up while they were in town for a visit. We were tickled that Amanda wanted to join us too! My mom said she'd watch Ben while we soared through the trees. They hit up Jaemor Farms to visit the animals. She loved keeping him, and we had a ball on the zip line! Its only about 8 minutes from our house - so any of you that want to do it too, come visit us! 
As most of you know, David and I spent 5 days at sea with some of our nearest and dearest friends - The Muller-Stones, The Kings, The Wages, and The Campbells. We boarded the Carnival Fascination on a bright Saturday morning, and had a ball for the next 5 days lounging by the pool, eating 3 course dinners, riding the water slide and enjoying the two excursions in the Bahamas. The highlight of the trip was swimming with the dolphins at the Atlantis resort...it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience to play with them, have them push us on a boogie board, swim alongside them, and talk to them. Wish we had pictures of that, but no cameras allowed with Flipper! One of the most fun parts of our days on the ship were having our pictures taken on the boat and seeing just how cheesy they can get...the above four pictures are the ones that David and I came home with. If anyone wants a copy of us in all white in an 8x10, please send me an email. HAHAHAHAHAHA! More recently, we headed to Panama City for the long Labor Day weekend. We were tickled for the Hills and the Campbells to join us for the 3rd year in a row. Sadly, the Wages couldn't come since Brian was under the weather - we missed them! This weekend was spend relaxing on the white sand and enjoying the amazing weather we all were having in the south. As I sit here at my house in Gainesville, its the most pleasant afternoon with fall in the air.
