our weekend with Bella

This weekend we hung out with Bella and she was just dying to go to Kennesaw Mountain. And you know that's our favorite place so we got in the car and headed to the mountain for an afternoon hike with the pup.

 The view was beautiful of course and we got to watch the sun set as we hiked. This is what the sky looked like from Pigeon Hill on our way up.

 This was the only time Bella sat down. Mostly she was just tugging and pulling us up or down the mountain. Bella's strong!

This picture was taken from the same spot on Pigeon Hill on our way down. The sky was gorgeous!

How was your weekend?

We also went to Sweet Water Brewery. 

 

It was their 15th birthday celebration and they had a super cool cake to celebrate.

 Yes, that is a cake.

 I love their colorful logo!

Also, guess who was there... Santa! I guess when he's not drinking milk he enjoying a Sweet Water brew! haha

this is what happens when John and Nicole dog sit

 

 Meet Bella! She's going to be entertaining us all weekend :)

gold finches

 The other day we were sitting in the living room and saw tons of birds flying back and forth in front of our windows. Bird after bird after bird. Where were they coming from? Where were they going?

 Come to find out they were gold finches. And they come here, to this apartment complex, every year to eat the little berries off of the trees and bushes. And once they've eaten all the berries off one tree they move to the next one...

Can you believe how many there are? It was crazy to watch! And wasn't the sky the most beautiful shade of blue that day?

Sublime Donuts

 I love donuts. That's all there is to it. So when John told me about a delicious donut place he discovered across from GA Tech we had to go! It's called Sublime Donuts and they sell homemade, fluffy delicious donuts. They're irresistible I tell ya.

 We got 4 donuts. A chocolate/vanilla twist, a chocolate on chocolate, a fresh strawberry filled donut and an apple caramel donut. Seriously, just looking at that picture of our donut box is making my mouth water.

 I think these signs below say it all...

And the funniest thing of all is that they also sell lots of donut souvenirs including these earrings :)

In case you weren't already hungry, here's that picture of our delicious box of donuts one more time. Ah-mazing.

Valentine' s date: Shakespeare Tavern

 The cheesiest and BEST picture ever! :)

Happy Valentine's Day!!

 For our Valentine's date, John and I went to the Shakespeare Tavern to see their production of Romeo & Juliet.

 Don't you just love the building?

Be mine, Valentine :)

 They have food and drinks at the tavern too. We shared a bowl of chili and a warm apple crisp.

 Romeo and Juliet's first meeting. It was love at first sight.

 O Romeo, Romeo, Wherefore art thou Romeo?

Excellent show, wonderful Valentine ♥
