Vacation: Part 3

After a lovely vacation at the North Carolina beach house we left back to Raleigh to bless Naomi and then the following day we headed back to Georgia.  Unfortunately about 2 hours into the 7 hour trip my lungs and back started to hurt.  I couldn't sit up, twist, turn or lay down comfortably.  So I laid in the back uncomfortably for the entire drive home only to go right to the ER when we finally arrived back in Atlanta.  They thought it could be a kidney disease, a UTI or a collapsed lung, but after multiple tests found out it was just muscle issue in my back (thankfully so).  So the next three days I slept in Atlanta, so I actually don't remember too much from those couple days  (I was on pain and muscle relaxer medication).

And then poor Zach, I was suppose to take him white water wafting, go to Six Flags, but because of my back we did not do anything.  But he wasn't disappointed.  He swam with Topher for most of the time.
When I was finally feeling better Zach and I went to the Georgia Aquarium (thanks parents!) and we saw the dolphin show which was so fun and we loved walking around seeing all the fish.












 Funny Story with the pictures below. So when you would get in this room it was pretty dark.  So when Zach or I would take the picture we wouldn't know what was behind us so who ever was taking the picture would wait until something cool would swim by and tell the person in the picture to make the face according to it. So as you can see I got the cool whale shark in Zach's picture and so when we switched places he told me to point to the side and make a surprised face and my picture below in the outcome of that...he thinks he is so funny =) But the next one he got actually had the cool shark in it.




Zach thinks he is so funny...

The real  picture
After the aquarium we later went down to Savannah. It was really fun to show Zach all the places of my childhood. And to show him downtown.  He thought Savannah looked eerie because of all the spanish moss, which I thought so too when I first moved there, but after all the years it just reminded me of home =)
We also went boating, but I think Lisa has the pictures from that.

Vacation Part Two: Beach House

After a few days in North Carolina we, (Lisa, Zach and I) headed to the beach house. Once we got there we got it all up adn running for Zach's parents and Mom, Dad, Katie and Topher who were coming in the next few days.
Once everyone had arrived we had sooo much fun! I am not sure why I enjoyed this trip so much, but it was a lot of fun to go to the beach and just enjoy the surf, the sun, fishing and playing "Oh Heck!" at night with everyone. So thanks to everyone who made it so enjoyable. =)
(Side Note: The pictures keep coming out formatted weird so to see them in normal format just click on them and go through them when they are big)

Zach loved that fish...













Sorry it is side ways! P.S. I won the game =)












Cute bike names!
