Since Eric's Mom's recent retirement to Bluffton, SC, we have been able to visit with several of Eric's friends and family from Germany who have all been taking turns enjoying some R&R at her new place. The most recent visitors were Helga and Haigu, who are much like and Aunt and Uncle to Eric. They arrived Thursday evening in Atlanta for a long weekend full of lots of fun. To insure a good visit, they brought a huge box chock full of German chocolate and marzipan - all of the favorites they know we love.
We had a wonderful visit with them, which included lots of good meals, shopping for us girls, a tour of downtown and a lovely "adults only" dinner at Canoe.
We capped off the weekend with Sophie's Spring Ballet recital.
She and Kylie have been taking classes together after school once a week. They danced to "The Bare Necessities" from The Jungle Book. Here's a big shout out to Crystal, who took care of putting Sophie's hair in a bun, which was an almost impossible feat! And another shout out to the policeman who did not give me a ticket for accidentally running a red light on the way to take the girls to the recital! I think their cute costumes won him over :).
