FUN SUMMER NIGHT!


Tonight we had a fun family night. We went to this really fun, unique and yummy restaurant called "ELEVATION".
This place is cool because it sits on the runway of the small airfield here in Cobb County. The food at this place is really good. Different and fresh. I think the motto is "midtown food without the midtown traffic!!!".
Every table has a view of the airstrip and we saw planes take off and land. Abbie really enjoyed it.

My mom got this crazy drink called a Nitrogen Martini. They literally prepared it at the table and poured liquid nitrogen (dry ice) over it. Mom said it was the coldest Martini she had ever had. A layer of ice formed over the top and you had to puncture it to get the straw out. WOW!!! It was a great evening with the parents and the husband and munchkin. Pop Pop (my dad) twisted Abbie's arm to go get ice cream afterwards. (JUST KIDDING). It was such a beautiful breezy evening.

The perfect ending to a perfect summer day is camping out. So, Mark and Abbie get the sleeping bags, the computer for movies and the floor in our bedroom for the camp out. The little one has yet to be convinced that the "real" outdoors is a fun camping place. The playroom, our bedroom so far. Next step the screened in porch, then maybe the outside- we'll see. Her mama isn't much of a camper so..... maybe that apple really doesn't fall that far from the tree!!!

Camping - that involves hard ground, peeing in the bush and no hot water right? Nahh, not for me either!

I am wondering how Mark's back is after sleeping on the floor.....or did he sneak into bed when Abbie was asleep??
That Martini looks AMAZING!!
