My Birthday =)

=) This is the long over-due update to the last post {my summer has been pretty busy}. 

Emily and I made my birthday cake on the 9th of June. It took pretty much the whole day.

{I can't remember the last time I had a cake this girly for my birthday. hehehe}


Later that day we closed on our new home in GA! 


Our amazing realtor, Ashley
{she's the reason we got our house... she worked really hard with the seller}


The next day, Ems and I took a break from cleaning and packing to enjoy my birthday at the Georgia Aquarium 


 To get there, we rode the MARTA {bus & train} so Emily could get the full city experience.


{you get into the Aquarium for free on your birthday}



One of our favorite exhibits was a tank you could walk under and view several whale sharks and other sea life through 24" of acrylic.  


{the whale sharks were quite impressive}


Emily even got her hands a little dirty.


{the piranhas were particularly photogenic}


Emily loved the lion-fish,


but my favorites were the seahorses


and the jellyfish.


 {check out the colors on this crazy fish}
We had a lot of fun at the Aquarium, but I wouldn't suggest going there without a coupon.
It was fun, but there's not enough there to justify full price.
We were finished with all exhibits in under 3 hours.
