busy, busy weekend

I just love when my weekends are full of fun activities and this weekend definitely delivered!
Saturday morning started off with the JLA bus tour. We started out at Zoo Atlanta where we watched the adorable pandas (I wanted to bring the baby one home with me!), the parakeets, and the lions - while learning about the zoo and the volunteer opportunities there. Next up was Atlanta Community Food Bank and Atlanta Union Mission. All three stops were extremely interesting, educational and eye-opening!

After the bus tour, I sadly had to pass up lunch at Taqueria del Sol with my provisional class to run a few errands then stopped by the house and chatted with our contractor and finally headed home for a quick lunch before leaving for an alumni event.

The event, a fundraiser for a scholarship fund at my school, was a big success and tons of fun with bbq, local beer, and Yacht Rock Revue - a fun and highly entertaining local band.

After some much-needed sleeping in Sunday morning, Cary and I took Jackson on a super-long walk around our neighborhood debating the pros and cons of various window styles. I think we finally narrowed it down to 4 styles! Next up tonight - roof shingles and doors! The excitement never stops...

Is it just me, or does the end of the year seem to speed up and get even more busy?

It is not just you, the months of October, November, and December go by so quickly.
