Quinlyn and the Carousel

This afternoon, Wesley, Jackson and I went to lunch with one of our favorite people. Quinlyn was one of the first teenagers we met when we moved to Atlanta. She graduated back in May and went off to college in Oregon. How sad :(



When she comes back to the South to visit, we love to grab time on her schedule to go out. Our favorite thing to do is lunch at Chick-fil-a at Northpoint mall. It is great for us because Jackson is entertained by the carousel and she loves to dine at CFA since they don't have one close to her out west (Can you image that?!)


Our visit with her was, as always, great. I just love spending time with her! Jackson was not wanting to be still for a picture but I did grab this cute one of the two of them.








We always treat Jackson to a ride on the carousel while we are there. Usually, he loves it. This time, he was unsure. When he was on the outside looking in, he was very excited and anxious to get on and ride. Once Wesley got him onto the ride, he became scared...very scarred.


First, he would only calm down if he and Wesley were on the stationary seat.






Since they had a while before the ride began, Wesley was finally able to convince him to stand up by a horse...he just couldn't put him on the horse.






Finally, Wesley got him on the animal, but Jackson would not let go of Daddy!




The ride started with Jackson hanging onto Wesley for dear life. One trip around though and he was fine - more than fine! He was entertaining all those in the food court by waving the entire way around!




At least he enjoyed the ride!
