It has been a very busy week! Christin, Stephanie and Matthew were here visiting and seemed to enjoy their time in Atlanta. We made a trip to the Blue Willow Inn for some traditional southern cooking. Here's a picture of the girls in front of the antebellum home. Beautiful home, great food and perfect company! On Saturday we headed to Savannah and walked around the river front and the historic district.
It's the third time I've been to Savannah and each time I fall more in love with its charm. It is really an amazing place and I love all the parks, squares and sidewalks! You can walk for miles and see all the beautiful old homes; Atlanta isn't at all a pedestrian-friendly city and I miss walking in your own neighborhood. To find a nice park it's quite a drive, so I'm limited to our boring subdivision.We spent Saturday night in Savannah and then Matt, Steph, Ron, Ella and I said goodbye to Christin (who was heading to Orlando with her friend) and headed to Charleston, S.C.
What a gorgeous city! Everyone said that if I like Savannah, I would LOVE Charleston and they were so right. The sea air, the old buildings and beautiful homes...one day was not enough so we will go back for a whole weekend in September. Charleston is on our list of potential places to settle down once we're finished with all the military moves. I had such a great time with my girlfriends and Ella really bonded with her godparents, Stephanie and Matthew. I love this picture of them! After a long visit and too much time in the car, we are home and going to bed early!!
