Weekend in HotLanta!

This weekend we had the pleasure of checking not one, but two items from our Florida bucket list!  We did this by heading north and visiting Atlanta, Georgia for a few days.  My husband and I have both been to ATL before, but only flying through or staying the night because our flights were delayed.  We were excited to actually get to experience the city for once.

First stop the world's largest aquarium, Georgia Aquarium!

Beluga whales were my favorite.

Kit's too I think.

We had to do a little crawling to see the penguins!

PENGUINS!

Penguin selfie!

The tunnel was awesome.  It let you see the underbelly of the stingrays and whale sharks.

Largest viewing tank I've ever seen...nice for viewing the whale sharks

Piranha 

Just a few steps away we explored the Centennial Olympic Park and then made it in time for the fountain show.

Love making this handsome man smile

Of course we made time for cupcakes

We ended the night with a Braves game!

My husband has been a fan practically since birth, so it's always been a dream to see his favorite team at Turner Field.  I was floored that we could make it happen for him!  It happened to be military appreciation night so we had the chance to witness a military family be brought onto the field and be surprised by their deployed member.  Not a dry eye in the house, including ours!  Also in attendance was a member from our favorite band The Civil Wars (John Paul White).  We had hot dogs and beer, and watched the Braves kick butt!

Entertaining ourselves between innings with pictures!

We had a great time, Go Braves!

The following day we hit some of our favorites like Ikea and Whole Foods (we found organic beer in growlers, so of course we were sold!) and headed back home.

My husband and I had a wonderful time exploring Atlanta.  We're so incredibly happy that we get to do things like this together.  Life is pretty damn perfect right now!
