These are pictures of us on the train ride that went around Stone Mountain. The Conductor gave us some history of the Mt. and then they played some songs like, "I've Been Working On The Railroad" and "Midnight Train to Georgia" and then surprise of all surprises they played Shelby's song, "She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain." We have a funny story about that song. One day about a year ago we were out driving and listening to a children's music CD. Shelby told me she wanted to hear her song. I'm like "what's your song??" She told me, "you know the song with my name!" I don't have a clue?, "What song are you talking about?" And she says, "you know, 'Shelby Be Coming Around The Mountain'" Now say it fast, can't you see how she could make that mistake? There is no convincing her other wise. That will always be "her" song. She sang it loud and knew every word.

fun stuff, we had a good time with the family!
I love those little girls facial expressions. Reagan always looks surprised that you're taking her picture and Shelby has the funniest "pained" expression. That's a good pic of you and Harry!
Stone Mountain brings back such memories for me. I went there almost every summer when visiting Fammie. Usually we would just go for the train ride and to watch the lazor show. They use to do some civil war train takeover...you will have to ask my mom about how upset Kate got once because she thought it was real.
Love it when children get the words wrong.
Oh my gosh! How cute!!! It is very funny how kids hear what they want to from a song, I agree!
i went to stone mountain 5 times during our time in atlanta. it's a great place!
Kacey loves that song too. Her favorite verse is "Oh, she'll have to sleep with Grandma when she comes (she snores!)" I had never heard that verse before until she sang it one day and it cracked me up. I still don't know where she heard it.
