A Coke And A Smile

One of my favorite things to do is travel and see new places. Whenever we go somewhere I try to do as much stuff as possible. Atlanta had a lot of great stuff to chose from!

The first place we went was World of Coke.

Coca~Cola was first invented in Atlanta in 1886 by a pharmacist named Dr. John Pemberton. Here is Alyse giving him a "cheers":


We also were greeted by one of the Coca~Cola polar bears, which Alyse wasn't so sure about...


There were lots of interesting things to look at from the history of the Coca~Cola company




Watching how they mix and bottle the Coke was really interesting.

There was a "4D" movie. At first Alyse was excited, but once it started she wasn't so sure about it. She looked pretty cute in the glasses though!

Finally it was time for some taste testing. They have 64 kinds of sodas from around the world made by the Coca~Cola company. We all enjoyed tasting them.

Yes, I let my 2 year old have her first real taste of soda....

Of course, I was very happy just to have some good old fashion Diet Coke!


Alyse was very excited about grabbing her very own bottle of Coca~Cola to take home with her.


At the Coke Store, she found a friend or two that she wanted to take home with her.

Daddy did give in and bought her one of those small ones.

Guess she liked the stuffed ones better than the big "live" one.

Maybe it was all the sugar she was taste testing, but I think she is pretty sweet herself!

AWE, I love the picture of her with all of the polar bears! Her hair is really starting to grow too! She is such a doll.

That just looks too fun! It's so crazy that you were in Atlanta because I was just there last Sat-Wed for my cousin's graduation!! My cousins were actually talking about going to the Hillsong concert! Too crazy!
