Halloween 2015 in Georgia

We were able to go to Georgia to attend our newest niece, Gwenyth Nyali Steven's baby blessing! Tasha and Ben came back to the States from Africa to have their beautiful baby girl! She is just so well behaved and easy and not to mention flawless. We spent a night tending her and only woke up twice for 10 minutes to feed her and BAM she was back sleeping. Her blessing was wonderful and the visit was FUN FUN FUN! We got there Halloween morning and relaxed while at the same time ooing and awwwing at little Gwen. Then we went out to a BBQ place which was a great introduction to Southern food. In the community that Tasha's parents live they use golf carts like vehicles. I kid you not, we went to the grocery store in one and they have specified parking spots for golf carts and everything. So for trick or treating, everyone decorated their golf cart spooky and went door to door. It was quite the experience and our little chicken enjoyed her first Halloween out on the streets. We also visited the Georgia Aquarium which was the highlight for Jade. She loved all the "shish" :) And then directly after we went to the world of coke museum. THAT was a delicious experience where they have taps of all the different coke products that are offered around the world. It was YUM YUM YUM! Tasha's family was so good to us. I always love being around that family because they are such a good time. Alex's parents and his little sister Natalie were also there for the blessing and it was so good to see them. Jade gets so much attention from them and Alex and I forget we have a child when we are around them. Jade is always taken care of :)  It was sad to leave our African family which has now expanded to 3. The only thing that made the goodbye tolerable was that we are all meeting up again at Christmas time.
