On Saturday, we went to Cleveland with the Hills to visit Babyland General! I'm pretty sure Melissa and I were the most excited about visiting the Cabbage Patch kid hospital.
It just so happened to be the 30th anniversary so they were having a huge birthday celebration!

 |
| The girls could've played in the little rooms forever. And lets face it, so could me and Mel! |
 |
| I had forgotten how good the cabbage patch kids smelled. A flood of childhood memories came rushing back when I breathed in that sweet baby powder smell. |
 |
| I love this picture because Mel and I are so excited and the girls are quite freaked out by the adult sized cabbage patch kid. |
 |
| They loved walking around checking out the babies and picking one to adopt. |
 |
| The Delivery! The actual birth story was a little disturbing, but the kids were hardly paying attention so we didn't have to do any explaining afterwards... Thank goodness! |
 |
| The Adoption Ceremony. Elizabeth had to raise her right hand and promise to be a good mommy. |
 |
| She named her baby Ella Mary and she got a birth certificate for her too. |
Afterwards, we went to the birthday celebration. It was a lot of fun complete with rides, games, and cupcakes.
 |
| Elizabeth was thrilled to have Kate there to do "big kid" stuff with. |
We left Babyland General and went to Helen, GA for Oktoberfest. There was great food, music and shopping. It was a perfect end to a great day!
 |
| Caroline was so exhausted that she passed out on the way home and went straight to bed when we got home. She didn't stir until 8:00 the next morning! |
 |
| Our neighbors are hilarious! They were teasing me about going to watch the birth of my first grandchild so they put this on my mailbox. Bert was a little confused when we got home wondering if there was something I needed to tell him! Ha! The only other girl coming into the Kelly home is a cabbage patch kid! |
