Just wanted to post a quick mini- update on my trip this weekend. As I had posted earlier, my sister, Kelly, and I had decided to take our mother to Atlanta to see the Princess Diana exhibit for a little Mother’s Day treat.

After leaving school yesterday at noon, I met my mom and drove to my sister’s house. From there, we headed out to Atlanta. My sister and I had not told our mom where we were taking her. When we got on I-65 S, I think she thought we were going to Birmingham. When we got there, and took the I 59/20 exit, she said, “ATLANTA----We’re going to Atlanta???” It was so funny. :laughing: She had to call our dad right then and tell him where we were going!

After having the bad luck to meet up with heavy traffic ---Of course, it was Friday, and a little after 5---we checked into our hotel. We headed over to the Cumberland Mall, and ate at the Cheesecake Factory, did a little “looking around in the mall” :rolleyes1 , and visited Barnes and Nobles.

Back at the hotel, we enjoyed sharing a slice of cheese cake---lemon-raspberry crème-----YUM! :cloud9:

This morning, we got to the Civic Center (and only went down one 1-way street once!) :eek: (Don’t worry; there was a quick U-turn, when we realized that!)

Of course, no cameras are allowed inside---so no pictures of anything inside. The exhibit was wonderful! We really enjoyed seeing all the items from Diana's childhood and teenaged years. Of course, her wedding dress was the best part. My mother said she could have just stayed in that room all day and watched that wedding video footage over and over. :goodvibes

Besides the wedding dress, I think my next favorite part was the room with about 20 of her dresses. I loved seeing all of those, and remembering seeing pictures of her wearing those beautiful gowns.

One item was purchased after the tour----

The book with details, and pictures of the exhibit.

We had a good time, and I think my mom really enjoyed herself, which was the main reason for the trip!



************************************************************************

I will enjoy spending tomorrow with my children. We’ll go to church together, and hopefully I won’t have to take care of lunch tomorrow!

I hope you all have a wonderful Happy Mother’s Day tomorrow! :goodvibes
 
Thanks for the mini-trip report... I'm so glad your mom had a great time!

Happy Mother's Day! :flower3:

Sounds like a great trip. I saw the Diana exhibit in Chicago some time back and truly enjoyed it.
 
Happy Mother's Day Michelle!:flower3:

I'm glad you got to enjoy the Diana exhibit with your mom and sister. Hope you have a great day with your family today!:goodvibes
 
Happy Mother's Day, Michelle!

We had a perfectly gorgeous day here in Atlanta yesterday for your visit! :goodvibes

That cheesecake sounds divine!!!

So glad you enjoyed the exhibit! It was funny seeing your pictures when we went so recently! That wedding dress really was something else, wasn't it?
 
Ooh, fun Mother's Day trip! (and Happy Mother's Day to ya!)

Love the lemon raspberry creme cheesecake - I had that at my b-day dinner there last week!

Okay, your 2005 trip sounds perfect! Its basically the same trip I'm planning for winter of 2011. I definitely think the Wilderness Lodge is the resort that lends itself to Christmassy-ness the most!
 
Glad you had a fun time! Have a happy Mother's Day!
 
sounds like a really fun Mom and daughters day! I would love to see all the dresses!
 
Hi Michelle! I'm back and all caught up. Love all the flashback pictures, it's so much fun seeing the girls growing up right before our eyes!

Sounds like a lovely trip with your mom.

Hope you are having a great Mother's Day with your 3 kiddos today!

Thanks, Jackie---Hope you had a good day, as well. :flower3:

It was a beautiful day in Atlanta, and I loved the wedding dress! The train always looked long in pictures, and tv, but seeing it in person---I couldn't believe how long 25 ft. actually is!


Okay, your 2005 trip sounds perfect! Its basically the same trip I'm planning for winter of 2011. I definitely think the Wilderness Lodge is the resort that lends itself to Christmassy-ness the most!
You'll love the WL--It really does feel like Christmas to me when I'm there! :thumbsup2

What a great Mother's Day gift for you Mom. Don't you just love surprising them with something you know they are going to enjoy?

I would love to see the Diana exhibit. I wanted to see it when they had it at Downtown Disney but it wasn't open when we were there.

I hope that you had a good Mother's Day and that you were able to laze around.
