Happy Valentines Day 2013

Adam and I have been taking advantage of the student perks. The first was a free night at the High Museum. I was fascinated with the marble sculptures (as they have a ton) and could not fathom how they made marble look like a veil! What a beauty!!

They also had a collection of larger than life paintings - Different from the Nelson Atkins but a great intro to our new museum in our new city.
Afterwards they gave us free tickets to see a full concert from the Atlanta Symphony. Free is good and the classical guitar made it a perfect evening!
Another one of my FAVORITE places so far in Atlanta is the GA tech leisure pool. The slide is amazing and the water is warm enough for even me! I have been improving on my mile time ever so slowly but my back is enjoying swimming again. 

Gigantic hot tub too of course. The competition pool is beautiful but was a little intimidating for us!

Learning how to bike places has been exciting. 
Look at those stairs! It is a VERY fast and LONG slide! Hope we have visitors to come slide with us!!
We did get a visit from friend/family EA - We forgot to have her bring a bathing suit but tried some restaurants around town and it was just wonderful to sit down and have time with her face to face. 

Valentines Atlanta skyline near our home - we are loving living in the city. 

Lots of pink for the month of February. We used a new App (new to us) called Scoutmob to find deals in the area that were 50% off - Dinner at one and dessert at another - it was a good find!
Last but certainly not least my little/all grown up cousin Char came to visit. She is so full of life and just blessed our afternoon with her surprise trip to Atlanta (other parties were involved in the trip but we benefited from it:-)). Nashville is not too far and we are loving it too! Its a month for things to love!
Still looking for a job here but hoping praying that by the end of March we will have made a decision!
