Georgia!

Well, to all 2 of you that read this (hehe) we miss you all terribly but are loving Georgia. I've always been a list person, so here goes...

Top Ten Favorite things about moving to Georgia

10. Warmth coupled with a healthy dose of A/C!

9. Trees. We thought Michigan was green, but whoa, we feel like we are living in the camp lodge here!

8. Our own personal washer and dryer. We were fine without one, but now we can(and did) potty train our daughter. Hooray!

7. Fun new church callings. Just as cool as our fun OLD callings, yet still exciting. Jason is liking ward mission work, and I have a blast in primary and cub scouts.
6. ATLANTA! A major airport, the Temple, Six flags, the Aquarium, and Ikea give us lots of fun stuff to do, and plenty of incentive for friends and relatives to visit!




5. Good employment, well, enough said.
4. Southern Food. Where else can you get fried chicken served with your waffle in the morning?
3. Did I already say Ikea?
2. Cheap rent and big bedrooms!
1. And the number one reason we love it here is that we feel right where the Lord wants us to be!


WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT WHERE YOU ARE?

Silly stuff...

As I was wandering through the Disney Store website searching for coordinating shirts for the family trip to Disney(!!!), I lamented at the fact that they don't make shirts for children under size 2T. I realize that 0-24 months is a very small percentage of the population, but still, Disney? Kid friendly right?
I wonder how hard it is to fake a mickey mouse emblem on a baby polo. I can just hear my little boy in the future, "I was always the odd one out, they didn't even get me family shirt on our disney vacation."

Third times a charm...


Well, yet again, I sheepishly admitted to a friend that I do, in fact, have a blog. Be it lame, it still pops on on the link whenever I post on blogs of friends. It seems that the only option I have is to stop avoiding my blog, and EMBRACE IT! So here we go, let's cross our fingers that the third time really is a charm.

Here's the family, to which this future AMAZINGLY COOL blog will be dedicated to.

What is a blog?

Well, I have heard of these things. Today I thought to myself, "Maybe this is one of those things i'll learn how to do when I have a child in middle school who can teach me." But my friend has one and she doesn't even have a teenager to teach her. Aha! Inspiration! It can be done! So here goes, the Ratliff Family Blog, whatever that means! :o)
Happiness does not depend on what happens outside of you, but on what happens inside of you.
