grey was sporting a great flannel shirt this evening that used to be his uncle cullen’s! hand-me-downs are both functional and provide great nostalgia.

we visited the baps shiri swaminarayan temple mandir on our day off for milk day. we had only driven by before, but never gone inside, so we were quite impressed to see the beautiful building up close. it’s hard to believe such a temple is found right in the middle of suburban atlanta, in fact you see a shopping center across the street if you turn around. it took 17 months to build with 1.3 million volunteer hours involved, most from hand carved stone. the intricate stone work found throughout the outside and inside of the building was gorgeous.

the interior was just as impressive as the outside, although they don’t allow any photos. you’ll have to take our word and just visit sometime! it’s highly recommended.

besides checking out the temple, you can also get some delicious indian food while visiting!

we spent a fun winter afternoon at the fernbank science center! we hadn’t been there in ages, but it was just as fun as i remembered. clementine found this awesome chunk of ice out back near the chickens did not want to leave it behind!

although the nature walk is no longer open, there’s still a lot to do at fernbank science center, plus it’s free. be sure to check our our previous posts here and here for more information about the center.

so long lebowski stripes… you served us well. it was a sad day to paint over our big lebowski stripes in our living room, but it was definitely time for a change. the stripes were inspired by the bowling alley in the big lebowski and were painted within a few days of moving into the house. farewell.
