Stone Mountain Park

Last weekend we invited my Mom and Dad and sister, Laura and her husband, Ken to join us for a day at Stone Mountain Park. My mom had mentioned that she had not been in a couple of years and so we decided not to wait and to take the twins for a day of fun. I started telling them about it earlier in the week and every time they would see a mountain "or hill" out the window they would yell "look there is Stone Mountain."We had quite an experience on the sky lift as when we got up to the top it kind of bumped the side of the entrance and then the doors didn't want to open for a couple of minutes. We got out and within minutes they announced that the sky lift was temporarily closed and so we were basically stuck at the top of Stone Mountain until they got the lift up and running again. A bag of popcorn seemed to help with the wait for the twins. Next we went to "The Barn" which is a kid friendly area that has tons of balls and games. We watched the 4D Yogi Bear movie which was the twins very first movie. I am not sure if that was a good idea or not because now they have pretty high expectations for movies. Grandma spoiled them with a trip to the candy store where they each picked out huge candy necklaces. Bailey's favorite part of the day was of course the real train ride. I love the picture of him and Preston watching for the train to come down the tracks to pick us up. Somehow we picked the perfect day as it was overcast and not too hot. We had a great time discovering all the fun things to do at Stone Mountain. After the day the twins and I drove back to Macon to spend a couple days at GranMacon's house. They were asleep within about 10 minutes of being in the car.
