Joe had a wonderful birthday doing exactly what he wanted to do: hanging out with family and eating special butterfly pork chops prepared by Lady.
I don't know who enjoyed Joe's birthday more, him or Jessica. A good time was had by all.
Jessica even gave out a few kisses. First to Great Grandma Gerken...
and then to a bobble head.
After an awesome lunch on Saturday, we decided to go to Stone Mountain and leave Jessica with Lady and Paw Paw. Stone Mountain is the largest piece of granite in the world. There are some historical guys carved into the face of it, just like Mt. Rushmore.
At night there is a laser show that is kinda 80's but the fireworks are spectacular and there are some other cool special effects. Here's what our view of the laser show looked like, only it was dark.
Here's what it looks like on top of that big rock.
We had fun at the mountain but Jessica probably had even more fun with Lady and Paw Paw's attention all to herself.
Jessica didn't like the feel of grass on her feet this time. She is cautious with dipping her feet in the ocean too.
Lady even let her try to feed herself with a spoon. It was messy but fun.
Jessica took a soothing bubble bath. It wasn't so soothing for Lady though... Jessica likes to dunk her face in the water and then laugh about it which scared Lady. Crazy kid. Here's a video of that.
Jessica was so exhausted from all the excitement over the weekend that she fell asleep in Paw Paw's arms and slept through the first half of the drive home. 
Thanks for all the spoiling Lady and Paw Paw! This blog is out of order because we've been so busy having fun with you and the Meissners that live so close now, yay!

It looks ilke a wonderful birthday, Joe! That little girl is a daredevil. I can't believe she kept dipping her face in the water. She is fearless, and cute as can be. I can't help but feel like I am looking at a little Lexi clone. :)
What an enormous chunk of Granite. How long is the hike to the top? Glad Jessica is having so much fun. Looks like a great birthday. Thank you for all the great pictures and the really cute video.
