Atlanta Weekend

Uncle Allan, Aunt Gaelle, Zayde, Bubbe, Aunt Yael, Mama, Ellie, Daddy

We went to Atlanta last weekend to spend some time with Jeff's family.  His dad and step-mother live there, his little sister (Yael) was home from medical school in Dominica, and his brother and his new wife (Allan and Gaelle) were in town for the weekend too.  Ellie had never met either of her aunts or her uncle, and we had not yet met our new sister-in-law.  So, it was a fun weekend with an opportunity for all of the new editions of the family to meet.  Unfortunately, we were too late to meet Yael's fiance, as he is in the reserves and had duty and had to leave for Macon on Friday evening before we arrived in Atlanta.  We look forward to meeting Chris soon though!

We spent Saturday at the zoo.  Ellie had fun watching the animals and the people!  We also went out for a great Mexican lunch and a lovely French dinner (in Gaelle's honor, as she is French). 

Chasing Maddie around the house

Mostly, we just spent time together and had fun hanging out.  Ellie enjoyed showing everyone what she can do (standing, giving kisses and high fives), and chasing Yael's dog around the house.  It was a super quick weekend, and I wish we had more time to spend visiting.  It would be great if we could see family more often, but it's hard when everyone is so spread out.

Here are some pictures from this weekend:
