The Nolden Family

We recently took an AmAzInG family trip to Tennessee. We visited the Gatlinburg area of Tennessee, which is 5 hours from our Georgia home. None of us had ever been there, so it was a great adventure for us. We discovered that it is a mecca for family vacations…there is sooo much to do there! [...]

We had some really nice weather in February of 2011.  It was a little too nice…because the allergy season started about 4 weeks early.  But overall it was a good thing and we were able to get out and enjoy nature a little bit after being inside all winter.  This is a place near Covington, [...]

Here are just a few of the many things we have been up to since 2011 started: Sophie is a pretty cute dog. She’s highly energetic! This is her playing with a balloon from Ashley’s birthday party. We don’t really know what kind of dog she is. We got her from the pound a year [...]

So, we were going to bed one night in January, when Liz called (on her cell phone – that’s our intercom system). She had just gone to sleep when a noise woke her up. She called to tell us that water was flowing down her wall. She was 2 stories below us. I walked out [...]

It may’ve only been 4 inches…but it was enough to shut down the Atlanta Metro area…closing businesses and schools for FIVE BUSINESS/SCHOOL Days!! Of course the kids have been LOVING it…except for the oldest, who couldn’t care less about the snow and felt trapped being away from her friends. We are grossly unprepared for Snow…so [...]

In early August 2010, they had a “Mormon Night” at an Atlanta Braves Game at Turner Field (against the Mets) in Atlanta. We all got to go and enjoy the festivities…but Frank, his friend Kevin from Vegas, Liz, PJ and Ashley had the most fun. They got there for an early meet and greet with [...]

On July 5th we left for a whirlwind trip to Washington D.C.   We saw all the “BIG STUFF” in two full days of running from one site to another.  That wouldn’t have been quite as difficult if the East Coast hadn’t been experiencing a significant HEAT WAVE at the time and most of the “running” was [...]

More photos of our Trip to Washington, D.C., in the early part of July 2010. ABOVE:  Trip to Washington DC – Motorcade While we were getting tickets to go up in the Washington Monument, we witnessed this Motorcade. Liz swears she saw Obama sitting in one of the SUVs with the window down…but I’m pretty [...]
