First Atlanta Weekend

This weekend was really fun. Saturday I got to experience some "real Atlanta." Larry Barker was in town for the day and Muffy (my bff Rachel Stroud) met up with us so we had the makings of quite the fun group. We walked to the Jazz Festival at Piedmont Park, had some popsicles from the locally famous King of Pops, and had some delicious BBQ. It was really fun :) I still have no idea where I'm going 92% of the time, but Atlanta is feeling more like home.

We also went to church here yesterday for the first time since we've been married. We decided a while ago that we wanted to go to Trinity Anglican Mission and really like it so far. We've only been a few times but it seems so solid and I'm so excited to get involved, check out small groups, and actually know people in this town. . . .

We still have almost no furniture, but last weekend we went up to Knoxville to visit my family and Amy and Travis let us borrow the kitchen table they used when they were newlyweds :) It's amazing how things like that make such a big difference in making it feel like home.








Our first piece of mail to Aaron & Bethany Legg!!

Home Sweet Home

We're here! OK, so we got back from Jamaica almost 2 weeks ago, but I'm secretly a procrastinator. Or not so secretly....

The wedding was the most amazing day ever and we couldn't have been happier. It was beautiful and the weather was perfect, and there were so many people that basically put their lives on hold for a week to make it all happen. So THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. Jamaica was also wonderful. We had beautiful weather, stunning beaches, and more smoothies than I've ever had in my life. It was a week full of pampering and relaxing and we had a great time.

When we got back, Aaron went right back to work and I set out to make our apartment a home. After a few trips to Ikea, Target, and Bed Bath & Beyond, our Peachtree apartment is very homey :)

the fun part - opening presents!!
