First of all, I apologize for missing my posts the last two days. On top of not feeling good, Christmas has snuck up on me and things have been very hectic! This past weekend we went to Stone Mountain outside of Atlanta with my parents and I wanted to share some of the Christmas decorations with you. Stone Mountain is the world’s largest piece of exposed granite. Outside of the gates we were greeted by “Bubble Man”. He was a favorite of the kids and the workers.
On the face of the Mountain is carved Stonewall Jackson, Robert E Lee, and Jefferson Davis. All key figures from the Confederate States of America.
You can walk to the top or ride the skyride. We choose the skyride today. Here’s the view of Atlanta from the top of the Mountain. As you can see the weather wasn’t really cooperating.
One of the things to do in Stone Mountain Park is the Antebellum Plantation. I love how they’ve decorated this house for Christmas. The little cornhusk horses are adorable. In the kids room, each kid has a different color yarn and the have to follow it to their present. So it’s a fun game. In the loom room, they are starting to decorate with popcorn and cranberries.
Stone Mountain Park does an amazing job of lighting up everything at night. I wish I knew how to work my camera well enough to do the lights justice, so here are the better pictures. The lights were just beautiful. Every tree, every building, everything was wrapped in lights.
