One of the best things about being back in Georgia is that we are surrounded by our family. Last weekend, MR got to spend time with Gran C and Big Daddy in Athens. Four day later, she got more grandparent attention with the arrival of Danny and Papa. With free babysitters at the house, G and I were able to join Hannah and Brantley at a Toys for Tots fundraiser called Kegs for Kids in Buckhead. The event had us out until almost midnight and was a sweet reminder that parenthood is a lot easier than a night out at the bar.
During Danny and Papa’s visit, we also got in a few Christmas activities. On Friday night, we enjoyed sugar cookies and Christmas decorations at Aunt Hannah and Uncle B’s house and on Saturday, we bundled up to enjoy faux snow in Atlantic Station.
With two weeks until the next grandparent sighting, we’re sure to have our hands full trying to entertain sweet Mary Reese. We’re working on recovering from an ear infection and learning that drop-off at the church nursery is not a form of punishment.

Happier times before an hour long crying session at the church nursery.
You tell MR I won’t make her go into that church nursery at all if she comes up here to live with me.
I can hardly stand how cute she is.
Hendley can hardly stand how cute G is. When she sees a Harvey family picture, she always kisses G first!
It took Addie awhile before she learned that church nursery was supposed to be fun… Partly because we leave her at school everyday and I am sure she thinks we don’t like her at all!
Such great pictures!!!
Carly, thank you sooooo much for that last comment you left. It’s one of the most thoughtfull ones I’ve ever received.
Have you seen the post on Glam Gals I did on winter shorts for ya? Wasn’t sure, but check it out.

The pics are great. Aunt B, Danny, Papa and the Harvey’s all look like magazine pics. I am so glad that you all are near family. Miss mu little sweet MR!, Gran C
