Rock Ranch

(See description at the bottom- I can't get it to move to the top of the post- sorry)

Brett getting his face painted.  Georgia on one side and Georgia Tech on the other!  He sat so still- I was shocked!
Riding on the "choo-choo".  This boy LOVES choo-choo trains.

Riding the carousel with Mommy...
and with Daddy!
Brett couldn't quite figure out the pedal on the tractor, so he rode with this cute little girl (who was four- and my boy was every bit as tall as she was!)

Riding the cow

Riding with Mommy- the first time I rode with him- the second time I let him ride by himself with me in the cow behind him saying "sit down" every two seconds!

Last Saturday we went to Rock Ranch.  It was this AMAZING place with a corn maze, pony rides, carousel, petting zoo, tractor rides, a train, a "cow" ride, fishing, paddle boats, and much more.  And, it is absolutely beautiful.  It is owned by Truett Cathy- so you know it is well-run.  Anyway, we had so much fun.  I kept telling Brian, "This is the perfect day."  It will definitely be a family tradition to go every year.  We went the day after Halloween- so it was "Pumpkin Smashing Day". They had a pumpkin cannon, pumpkin bowling, a crane to ride up and drop your pumpkin, etc.  I can't believe I just found out about this place.

The Stomach Virus- revisited

Well, this stomach bug is horrible- pray now that your family does not get it.  When I called the doctor the first time Brett had this (yes, I did say the first time)- they said he could re-catch it.  Well, Brett has now had it twice,  my sweet mom has had it 3 times, and just when we thought we had escaped- my dad and I both got it on Friday.  We are more than ready to say good-bye to this nasty bug.  I will update with some pictures soon.
