Atlanta Botanical Gardens - Fest of Ale

I absolutely love the Atlanta Botanical Gardens!  Especially after visiting Montreal I wanted to make sure to see the Mosaiculture exhibit at the Atlanta gardens before the exhibit ended.  The evening was made even more fun because in celebration of the fall they had scarecrows all over the garden.  Each one was designed and constructed by various local groups.  They were so fun and festive!  There was also a pumpkin carving competition and a live bluegrass band.  My parents joined us for the evening as well as our friends Brandon and Larissa.  It was perfect weather and such a fun evening!


The earth goddess at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens was gorgeous as well and there were other fun imaginary world creatures around the garden such as a unicorn, a big shaggy dog, two serpents, and an ogre.  We took lots of pictures and enjoyed a beautiful sunset over the city skyline.  I’m so glad we renewed our membership so we can plan a few more fun trips over the course of the year.  Our next visit will be for my favorite time of year when they have Lights in the garden and cover the whole garden with sparkling lights and décor.  I can’t believe how quickly this year is flying by but it’s been a wonderful one so far!
