32 Hours in Atlanta!
The Kids and I got on the 8pm flight to Atlanta on Thursday Night. We got to our hotel at about Midnight and we were on the road to Peachtree City by 9 am! All together I wanted to see 6 rental houses(yes I said rentals), 1 of them was rented(the one I really wanted to see), 2 people will not call us back, 1 was scary, 1 was old, and 1 is in most awesome elementary school(if you ask me the house ok, if you ask everyone else they like)!
We got to visit that awesome school! And we want the kids to go there but we are having a hard time finding a rental in the area. And in the middle of this we got a call from our "showing service" and got a house showing, with really good feedback from it!
We spent most of our time in Peachtree and I really really like it! Lots of trees and rolling hills, and the golf carts! The city has 90 miles of golf cart paths! As we were driving, I just don't fell like I was in a city of 35,000 people! Everything is very neat and clean, no obtrusive signs! Love it!
Yes that is golf cart parking!

Recognized as one the leading school systems in Georgia, Fayette County schools have the highest SAT, CRCT, and ITBS scores in the state. The Fayette County Board of Education states that two of their main goals are to improve academic achievement and to serve as strong positive role models for students. Two schools have obtained the National Blue Ribbon School distinction; many have earned the School of Excellence distinction. Some strong points of the system are their strong academics, excellent community support, small class size, the lifestyle advantage, staff development opportunities and the wide array of extra curricular activities available to students.
Now we just need to find a house here!
This is after about 9 hours!
Everyone is now sleeping, Don has to go to work on Saturday AM and then we all catch a 3pm back to Houston! I'm praying that maybe we have some good news about Log Cabin Lane when we get back!
