It was such a beautiful yesterday that I decided that it would be a sin to stay indoors. Hud and I met Julie (still on her "honeymoon" from work) at Mulberry Park to go for a walk, have a picnic, and let the kid play on the playground. I found out that he loves the see-saw. And throwing mulch but let's hope he loses interest in that one.

Today my lovely mama and I went on a little field trip to Atlanta.
Sorry for the funky exposure on this one folks. My camera setting got flipped over, I tried unsuccessfully to play with the color, it didn't work out. There were others pictures that were taken but I ruled them out as I decided that my face looked fat. What can I say? Let's just pretend this was done on purpose.
We went on the Ansley Park Tour of Homes which featured homes designed by J. Neel Reid (for those architect buffs out there). There were lots of beautiful older homes in such a great community. We knew the owners of one of the homes. Don Easterling is such a talented interior designer who has helped me out in choosing furniture in the past. His house was the most beautiful... can I say that? Well, it really was. We weren't allowd to take photos on the inside but I snuck and got a few outside throughout the tour.
Check out this one.
Not on the tour but wow. I like Halloween as much as the next guy but I'm too lazy for this.
One of the things I love most about Atlanta is you can be driving down a super busy street, make a turn and be in a little neighborhood like this with huge trees hanging over the road. You just don't have that out here in the 'burbs. I've tried to convince Casey to move to the city. He says absolutely not. He says he is a country boy. I tell him he isn't a real country boy. We don't even live in the country. When you live within five minutes of five different grocery stores, you aren't "country." He has become too citified.
I was so close to wearing high heeled clogs. Thank the Lord I didn't. We walked a ton. Check out these beaten-up cobblestone sidewalks.
Thank you flats.

Casey was out at a work thing all morning today so I decided to get off of my lazy bootie for once and get out and enjoy the beautiful weather at the park with Hud. Let me just say, I don't know if I just have super low endurance from not running for a long time or if it was me pushing a 25 pound child in a 20 pound stroller (probably the former) but I only made it one lap around the park.
Ok I mostly walked but it was fast walking and there was some running involved.
Hud played on the playground and got to do his favorite thing: swing ('weeee' as he calls it).
He also played with the steering wheel.
Then we sat in the shade and blew bubbles. He got bored and started picking and eating grass so I made an executive decision to take him home for nap time.
