Botanical, the beautiful
Caleb and I recently visited the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. Here's some pictures from our trip. We had a great time!
Caleb loved the Skyline pictures
Afterwards, we went to the yummy Greek place called, Athens pizza. This is one of those places that I wish I could take credit for finding on my own because it's so good but I can't. My best friend Dianna is the ultimate lover of all things Greek and anything she recommends is going to be AWESOME! We had the best pizza of our life, Athens Special - you gotta try it!
The Botanical Gardens were also so fun because I got to learn all the new skills from my photography class. I've completed my first course - Beginner Photography and am about to move on to advanced. It's so much fun and I've really fallen in love with it! I'll post another thing about that later!
AHHHHH!!!!!!
I almost drop kicked my laptop making this post so this is a great time so share why I'm so excited for Christmas to come. I'm a mac user and my mac came with a faulty mouse so in hopes of correcting it, I'm asking for this from Santa Claus.
It's Apple's magic mouse. It sits on the side so there will no longer be accidental laptop mouse swipes in the future! Cha Ching! Happy Tuesday to all and to all a good night! :)

Domestic Epiphany
So I promised myself that I wasn't going to make a blog until I absolutely loved the name. So while folding laundry (this doesn't happen very often around our place- bad wife, I know) I started thinking about the line from John Denver's "Country Roads".
Here are the lyrics http://www.superseventies.com/sl_takemehome.html
I don't know how I thought about it but I just kept singing it in my head, we all know it, "West Virginia, mountain momma, Take home, country roads". So trying to think of the cute blog name that semi rhymes (finding a blog name is almost like making a Campus Outreach newsletter) I thought let's name it, Mountain Martins. We live in Dahlonega where our backyard literally is the skyline of the Blue Ridge Mountains full of winding backwood country roads and it's now where we call home! Are you starting to see why I'm so excited about how perfect this name is?!!!! So all in all, welcome. Welcome to our life. We're just a couple of sinners trying to figure it all out one step at time (well that is with Jesus in the control room). One thing I promise that you will see in our lives is that I, Katie Martin, am the grammatical error queen and that is not a reflection of my grammar loving husband, Caleb.
Happy weekend!
