More of what we have been up to!

 Karlee and I were able to go to Nashville last week so that she could participate in the Tennessee Honor Choir.  She was selected from several hundred who auditioned to go.  She has such a pretty voice!  We stopped by the Parthenon in Nashville before heading to the Opryland Hotel.  It is an exact replica of the original in Greece.  If anyone has seen the movie PERCY JACKSON this is the statue of Athena they used.
 We went out to eat with the other kids from her school that went.  She ordered a HUGE plate of catfish, cod, crab cakes and frog legs!
 Karlee and two of her friends Sarah and Rachel.  (they also live just down the street!)
 This is the honor choir from all over the state.  Of course Maryville had the most kids.  They could only send in ten audition tapes from each school.  This year Maryville had ALL ten accepted.  They performed in the Tennessee Ball Room of the Opryland Hotel.

 Carter Also turned 6 on April 5.  I can't believe he is that old.  He sure is cute though.

 We went to Atlanta last weekend for the Atlanta Temple Open House.  We stopped by World of Coca-Cola before.  This is kara trying the really nasty Italian drink "beverly"
 Outside Coke world
 You can drink to your hearts content!
 Carter loved this burping coke machine
 The totally redone Atlanta Temple is gorgeous.  It was so hot and humid that day it reminded me of the day Chris and I were married in the middle of July. 
 This fun park is the Olympic Centennial Park in downtown Atlanta.  It brought back memories of when Chris and I went to the Atlanta Olympics

 Cute kids and the new Temple Steps
