I love my Uncle Kris!!! - July 27, 2008



My brother was just here visiting for almost a week. There is nothing better than being with my family. We wish we could live closer, but we try to see each other every 2 or 3 months! One of the best parts is eating dinner together every night - we always cook his favorite meals - my mom's meatloaf, my mom's spaghetti, baked ziti, grilled steak, corn and baked potatoes. In the past we have jam packed things into a short visit, so this time it was nice to chill out more. It made the time go by slower. We took Uncle Kris swimming at our neighborhood pool, went to see the new Batman movie - The Dark Night, saw the laser show at Stone Mountain, went jogging and to YOGA! My brother and I always do yoga when we get together and go jogging at the parks. I recently found a lady who teaches yoga out of her house. She has a special room out back and she is the best teacher I have found up here so far. She has been teaching for many years and recently returned from a long 2 year journey, which included a lot of time spent in India. She really gets the mind, body spirit connection and doing yoga at her studio feels like home. I am so happy to have finally found a place to practice and grow. Last Friday, I took my mom, GrandBob and Kris to yoga. The day before Kris left, he and Chad went to Six Flags Atlantis together and rode roller coasters for two hours. I think they were brothers in another lifetime, they get along so well together. The only thing we were missing was "Miss M", my brother's girlfriend; she fits in with our family like a glove. We will get to spend time with her when we go down to FL in a couple months.


Ava loves her Uncle Kris, when he is here, she cannot leave him alone. She wants to spend every waking second with him. He plays with her like he is 3 too!


I think Kris had a great time, I know we enjoyed his company and can't wait to see him again in a couple months.
