Girls to Atlanta

A little over a week ago, Sarah, Roxie and I headed south to Atlanta. We went to help Sarah with wedding plans, to meet her family and friends and to just have some quality time together. We stayed with Sarah's mom and had such a great time. It was a busy couple of days but we were able to accomplish a lot!!

There was also a shower thrown for Sarah on Sunday while we were there. It was really nice to meet all of her friends and to see her surrounded with so much love.

Here's Roxie, Sarah & Nancy (Sarah's mom)

I made them this papercutting - Sarah really likes these birds - I thought it turned out nice :)

So Atlanta is obviously very different than Ithaca and there are several things that are there and not here. So one of Sarah's favorite food joints is Chick-fil-A, so we had to experience the chick :)
One thing that I am definitely envious of in big cities are there huge stores and extra selections. For example, we went into a Michael's craft store and it was amazing how many more things they had there to choose from. I guess I'll just have to save up for when we go back in November for their wedding :)

One other amazing thing that happened while we were there, Nancy's cat was pregnant and actually gave birth. It was so incredible! I had never seen an animal birth before so it was quite the learning experience. She ended up having 4 healthy kittens and they were sooo precious!
