Georgia Aquarium

Hello, lovelies.

I realize it has been quite a while since I posted, but life has been pretty sweet lately and I've been pulling away from documenting it in order to fully appreciate it. Does that make sense?

Hubs and I recently took a little mini-trip to Atlanta while we were on vacation. He had never been to the Georgia Aquarium before (and I have, albeit a few years ago) so I wanted to show him how incredible it is.

So, in lieu of an actual update (that'll come soon, I'm sure), you get some pretty photos.  I'm just posting my favorites; if you'd like to see the entire set, it's here on Flickr! ♥ Enjoy!

Happy little stingray.
Lionfish
Eel!
Jellyfish. Mesmerizing to watch.
Baby moon jellies. ♥
Penguin!
Another penguin -- with his "friendship bracelet" -- haha! These were J's favorites.
Scary-lookin' piranha. He was eyeballing us pretty fiercely.
Seaweed Seahorse
I had originally thought about cropping the photographer out, but I like him there for scale!
Aaand my favorite -- THE BABY BELUGAS. I could watch them all day.
This one was a little oddball and she swam upside-down. She was my favorite, naturally.
Beauties. ♥

Good News!

My precious 15-year-old baby girl isn't on her way out -- she's actually healthy, aside from a pretty severe urinary tract infection! I broke down crying in the vet's office when they told me she was healthy -- I knew I had been stressed about it, but I didn't realize just how much until then. I've never snuggled her so close in my life. Now she's back home, she's eating again, she's using her litter box again, and she's not even holding a grudge against me for sticking a syringe of amoxicillin down her throat 2-3 times a day.



AND, in other good news, my cornbread turned out beautifully! I wish Granny were still here. She'd be so proud. I may or may not have put just a few too many chopped jalapenos in there, but luckily we like our cornbread spicy! 




Also, J's parents are flying in from California to close on their house, finally (they've been trying to sell their house here in Alabama ever since last April when they packed up and moved to Cali). I requested to leave a couple of hours early on Thursday so that we can go have dinner with them. It'll be great to see them again. I love them both so much -- every time I'm around his family, I boggle at how lucky we are. Not every couple is lucky enough to have an amazing support system on both sides. I love his family as much as I love my own, and he feels the same way towards mine. ♥

Hope all of you are having a lovely week.
