Georgia ~ Day 3

I know I'm nine but I think Butts county is a funny name!

After Mama Jean and I were all done getting our hair styled at the salon we headed to watch our nephew TJ's champion football team play this morning.

We drove through Timothy's old neighborhood and stopped by the house he grew up in.

After The Wedding Reception in Jonesboro (photos and a blog coming soon....) we met the entire family at Buckner's a good ol' down south buffet.

The "little boys" had so much fun together

Happy wife = happy life.  A little fatherly advice

TJ and Uncle Bo

Thank you to everyone for a wonderful day.  The reception was perfect as was our family dinner.

Tomorrow we set sail for our Honeymoon cruise in New Orleans! :)

Georgia ~ Day 2

Up and at 'em.  Timothy on Uncle Teazey's Tractor.  Too bad it's not green or he could sing, I'll take you for a ride on my green tractor...



Timothy in his dad's truck

The two lane empty roads remind me of my itty bitty small town roots.

Timothy took me to see his dad's grave.  Oh, how I wish I could have met and known that man.  His family says there is a lot fo his daddy in him, and for that I'm so grateful to Mr. Blalock.



We met my family at Zaxby's for lunch.  Mark and Andrew were especially impressed with the chicken strips!



Tim at The Dwarf House in Forest Park.  He managed this Chick Fil A.  It was my first time sitting at a sit down Chick Fil A.  They made my meal to order ~ all Gluten Free.  Now if I can just get the California CFA's on board!



My sweet nephews ~ Mason and Caleb and their new loot courtesy of LaLa and Uncle Bo. (Well, Uncle Bo picked it out.)

Caleb built the 3D Star Wars puzzle after working diligently and patiently.

Mason's all tuckered out.

Tomorrow is The Georgia Reception.  I'm excited to meet so many of Timothy's friends and family.  I've heard so much about them and it will be nice to meet more of my new extended friends and family!

Georgia ~ Day 1 ~ The Varsity and a bit of Jonseboro

Timothy and I flew to Atlanta, Georgia today.  Our Georgia Wedding Reception is on Saturday.  We plan to spend the next 2 days visiting Timothy's old stomping grounds.

First stop?  Hot dogs and Frozen Orange Shakes at The Varsity!

What'll ya have?  What'll ya have?  What'll ya have?

We had a nice lunch with mother.  (Thanks for picking us up, Mama Jean!)

We stopped by Timothy's grandparents house in Jonesboro.  It's had a facelift over the past 30 years.  It brought back a lot of happy memories for Timothy.

This is the elementary school (right accross from his grandparent's former house) where Timothy went to school.  He would walk accross the street to and from school.  He got to spend time with his beloved grandparents every day!

I'm loving beng in Timothy's hometown.  Excited to see more tomorrow!
