Our Georgia Bryant Christmas

This past summer Josh's parents and two sisters moved to Snellville, Georgia - a town northeast of Atlanta. We left around noon the day after Christmas and drove most of the day to visit. We stopped a couple of times and of course had to stop at Josh's favorite place from college, Canes.


We made it to their house a little after 8:00 and after getting all of our stuff inside we opened presents.


On Sunday, we went to church and then had a pretty low key day. On Monday, we planned to go into the city. Josh, Matt, and I went to Del Taco for lunch. We've only ever been there once, when we were in San Diego, they don't have them in North Carolina. Then we went to Atlanta to go to the Aquarium.


After we had been in line at the Aquarium for a while, I looked over toward the Coke building and saw a box sitting on bench that I recognized. It was a Jane Drop box from Very Jane that I had seen on Instagram many times. The website is a boutique deal site and they leave these boxes all over, filled with some of the great merchandise they sell and then leave a picture and riddle on Instagram. When I noticed the box I checked Instagram and saw it had just been set up there about 10 minutes before so Josh, Matt, and I ran over and met a couple there from Jane. They told me I could take the box home and it was SO EXCITING!!!



After finding the box we got tickets for the Aquarium and then had time to walk around and see some of downtown. We went to the CNN building and walked/ran through the Olympic Park in the rain. 


The Georgia Aquarium is the largest aquarium in the world and it was so cool to see their huge whale shark tank! My other favorite part was the dolphin show, which we couldn't take pictures of, but it was so cool!


We left the Aquarium and took a van cab to the Hard Rock Cafe and had a great dinner.



After a flat tire fiasco, we got going pretty late in the day on Tuesday, but we had a really good trip overall. I'm glad we finally got to see their new house! 

XOXO
