Carpe Diem!


It was Friday and Collin didn't have school today nor did we have any specific plans. The weather was actually quite pleasant (45 degrees and sunny) and I'd heard the weekend predictions of sleet/snow and cold so we decided to enjoy the day outdoors. We called our friends Carter & Amanda to see if they wanted to hike with us at the Sope Creek, part of the Chattahooche National Forest and less than 2 miles from our house. They did, so we enjoyed a nice hike in the woods and a picnic by the lake.



After going to a Power Yoga class we headed down to the zoo since we're members and we probably only have a few more weeks before we have an infant with us and such spontaneity won't be as easy. It was GREAT to be at the zoo in January! There were more animals than people and we were often the only people at each exhibit. The lion who is usually sleeping was roaring and pacing to try to keep warm. Collin's favorite is still the elephants. We rode the merry-go-round AND the train and enjoyed the new playground. It was quite a fun Friday!!
