March Family Visit

So this past week was Auntie M's LAST EVER spring break!  She and Gma S came to visit us here in Georgia!  It was quite a fun trip and it was great for them to see the kiddos!  We had lots of fun, ate too much food and treats, and went to fun places around the area.  Here is a little recap:

First off, we went to go see "The Lorax" movie, which you may or may not know, is my FAVORITE Dr. Seuss book.  I remember reading it in elementary school and I still read it to my kids regularly.  I was extremely nervous that I WASN'T going to like it because of how in love I am with the book.  Luckily, I do love it just as much as the book, and will probably be buying it when it comes to DVD! :)

The next day we went to Providence Canyon, about 45 minutes south of here.  We had such a great time doing the loop and exploring on the canyon floor.  I felt like a bit of a supermom carrying Astrid in her Moby Wrap while hiking canyons! Marcus was a little 4 year old rock star and hiked the whole 3 mile loop AND through all the canyons.  He didn't even fall asleep on the ride home!  He's getting so big!  Anyway, here are some pictures!










At Providence Canyon they have an area that used to be an old homestead with super old cars abandoned there.  So on your hike you get to pass by some old cars with trees running through them! Marcus was very concerned and kept asking if "Mader and Lightening McQueen died" haha.




We also spent the day in Atlanta.  We went to the Georgia Aquarium and at dinner at THE BEST PIZZA PLACE.  It's called "Blue Moon Pizza" and it is DIVINE!  Here are some pics!









After all that fun, we spent the next day at home just hanging out and getting ready for Auntie and Grandma to leave. We did go see "Journey 2: the Mysterious Island" and we were the only ones in the theater!  It was a fun movie.  I loved the first one so it was fun to see the sequel.  Marcus really liked it!

Anyway, that's a recap of our fun adventure! Pin It

Our Big Fat Georgian Adventure: Day 1

This morning we rolled out of bed at Maddi's house and loaded the already packed full car up with 2 kids, 2 parents, and a kitty and started our drive to Denver. It's now 9 am and we are almost to the long highway 6 stretch to Green River, and on to Colorado. We are so glad we decided to drive today instead of yesterday... It felt so hood to just rest and have a day to get things organized and packed perfectly in our trunk. So far, our day has been pretty uneventful, see?

5 years!

Cooper and I have been married five years!  Yesterday was our anniversary.  We had a great time, we went to take pictures at the chapel that we got married in, and then we went out to eat at the Melting Pot!  It was so much fun.  We took the kids and had Auntie M and Gma S come.  It was the best.  I loved spending it with family! :)

A+ guys!

Great guessing!

We are moving to Georgia! Cooper has a great job opportunity so we are taking a leap of faith! Movers are coming on the 20th... And we will be spending Christmas in Denver. Send lots of prayers our way hoping it all works out. We feel really good about this move. A few weeks ago we were at a crossroads as to where we are and where we are going next. I got a blessing from a GREAT family friend and we felt in so much peace. After the blessing, he said, "I don't like to say these things during blessings, but I gotta say, in the middle of it I got a very strong impression, you're goin to Georgia!". And that was that!

So, the Jensons are going on an adventure. We are so excited! Pin It
