Let's Just Go Somewhere: Christmas in Atlanta

We checked back into our same monthly site #357 where we would be staying while waiting on grandbaby #3. We were unable to get out with satellite previously because of all the trees. Since most of the leaves were gone, we thought we might be able to get out this time.

Chuck backed the motorhome into the site and before we did any other setting up, we turned the satellite dish on and guess what, it worked. So we proceeded to finish letting the slides out and level the coach up. The only problem was that now that the coach was level, the satellite did not work. Rrrrrr! :(

We were determined though! So we brought the slides in and raised the jacks and kept working with it until finally we got the satellite to work AND were level. Normally, we wouldn't worry about it, but we knew we were going to be there a month and with all the Christmas shows and college bowl games, we wanted to get the satellite to work if at possible...and we did!

Grandbaby #3 decided he or she did not want to come early like her cousin Avery. But that was ok because we still enjoyed getting to be with the kids and the grandkids in Atlanta.

We made Christmas cookies...

...and babysat so the moms could have a day out.

We drove back to Nashville for one day to go to the Gregory Christmas at Jerry and Pam's. All the Gregorys got to meet Avery for the first time.

We had lots of fun and lots of laughs over old times.

We celebrated Christmas early with the kids and grandkids in Atlanta because Crystal and Grant were going to California to be with Grant's family for Christmas and because Tafanie's baby was due right around Christmas day.

Avery has grown so much in two months.

Isabella mastered the art of opening presents very quickly.

Avery decided she would just watch.

I think Isabella liked her new toys.

So did Avery. :)

While we were staying at Stone Mountain, Chuck and I would try to walk every day and we would usually walk by the golf course. Chuck found about 60 golf balls over the time we stayed at Stone Mountain.

On Christmas Eve morning while we were walking around the campground, the fog rolled in over Stone Mountain.

You could barely see the mountain.

And even though the leaves had mostly fallen before we got there, Chuck still had to get up on top of the motorhome a couple of times to get the leaves and pine needles off.

On Christmas Day, Tafanie and Cory invited us to go with them to the Georgia Aquarium. We saw lots and lots of different species of fish. We walked under the fish...
