I already think he looks like Matt. We are thrilled and can't wait to meet the little guy! :)

Driving Across The Country

A week ago Matt and I started our trek home. Since we'd already put 15,000+ miles on the car this summer, we decided to add another 2,000 and drive home from Atlanta instead of shipping our car. It was a much cheaper option. It was actually KIND OF (notice the emphasis, I'm trying to remain positive about the situation) fun to see Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and of course the familiar sites of UTAH!


The packed car..

Our first stop was downtown Atlanta. No, we didn't get very far. But we had to stop at the famous Georgia Aquarium before we officially left the city. It did not disappoint, and we saw many fish that we'd never even heard of before.







One bonus of the trip is that we got to stop in Dallas and see Maddie and Matt. We went kayaking (so entertaining when Matt Crane fell in the lake), and to a delicious Mexican restaurant.



Next stop...Gallup, New Mexico. Our activities there were not picture worthy. Just staying at a crummy motel.

Luckily, the next day we drove five more hours and arrived at Lake Powell! We got to take a rest from driving for about five days and spend time with family on the lake. It was heavenly. A big thanks to the Robisons for inviting us along.






On Friday night we finally arrived in Utah. We celebrated with Matt's family by going up the canyon for some smores.




We are so excited to be home!

Del Mar

This year we had the annual Horsley family trip at Del Mar, California. The hotel was stunning, and the weather felt heavenly compared to the heat of Atlanta.
I didn't take one picture during the whole trip; hence the randomness of the photos below. I guess being pregnant has made me super lazy? I don't know. Luckily other family members took many fun pictures that I could steal.







However, the trip just did not feel the same without Matt! He was too busy working, and had to miss out. He really would have loved the beach, golfing, and in-n-out runs, just to name a few. :(
Thanks, Mom and Dad, for such an AMAZING trip. I can't wait to go back soon (hint hint).
