centennial fountain

One of the items on our Summer Fun list was to play in a fountain. Micah had kind of touched the one in Savannah but didn't ever get brave enough to play in it. Around Atlanta the best place for FREE water fun is Centennial Park and we'd never taken them there so it seemed like the right time. We asked the Cardozas if they wanted to come along so we both battled the traffic (roadwork is insane) to get downtown. We got a much later start than I anticipated because 15 minutes before we were going to leave our realtor called to say someone wanted to see the house and nowadays that pretty much takes precedent over everything :)

Once we were there it took Micah about 5+ minutes of watching everyone else to decide if this was really something he wanted to do but after his first run through he was hooked and he and Isabella jumped over and through the water like crazy people. William loved it as well but loved the frisbee a man was passing out even better and decided he would prefer to practice his form on the sidelines for awhile instead. Connor liked the water as long as I was holding him (surprise, surprise) but did occasionally reach out and touch it on his own.

It was great fun and one of those Atlanta things we've always wanted to do. I have to admit as much as I like my small towns the big city has it's perks :)
