Samuel "Frequent Flyer" Davidson

So we just returned from our vacation visiting Andrew's relatives. This means Samuel had to endure two 4+ hour non-stop flights to Georgia and back! Sammy was such a good little passenger... he slept about 1/2 the time in the air - and during all the take-offs & landings (while happily sucking on his paci)! He got extra special attention from all the flight attendants and one even tried to set him up with a baby girlfriend about 6 rows back!

Georgia in the fall is beautiful! We were fortunate enough to see all of the trees with their red, orange and yellow leaves! As tourists, we visited the Coca Cola Museum/Factory, climbed up Stone Mountain, and ate at Atlanta's famous "The Varsity" restaurant (think g-r-e-a-s-y goodness). But our favorite part of our trip was spending so much time with our Uncle Ron, Aunt Barbara, all of our cousins & their 10 kids! Jessica had never met any of the cousins or their kids so it was especially fun to get to know them. We stayed 1 or 2 nights at each of the cousins' houses. Samuel's favorite part was meeting baby Seth - who is just 5 days older than him! We got lots of photos of the two babies together - what cuties!

It seems our 9-day trip just flew by - and before we knew it we were back on the plane heading home. We're really looking forward to seeing our Georgia family again for a visit sometime soon! :)

Enjoy the photos below!

Ready for take-off!

We spent the first couple days hanging out Mark, Wendy & their kids.
Here's Mark and his 2 boys Will & Ryan
And Wendy & Maria -
Maria was such a cute helper with putting Sammy's paci back in his mouth if it fell out!
"Maybe he wants his paci?" :)
Little Betsie loved to hold baby "Samol"
We had a fun-filled day with Christy & her kids Caleb, Daniel & Betsie: Coke Museum, lunch at the Varsity & an afternoon hike at Stone Mountain!
Here are the true colors of Autumn!
Here's Stone Mountain's carving... we're about to climb to the top! ...and we made it!

What a busy house it was!
