Fourth of July Weekend {and then some}

Last Friday we went to Gran and Pop's house on Lake Martin for the Fourth of July weekend.  We had such a great time visiting with family {Kate, Scott, Brad, Lauren, Aunt Debbie, Uncle Randy, and Morgan (my first cousin)}, eating LOTS of yummy food, taking boat rides, and just hanging out by the lake.  Miller was up during the night a good bit due to those four teeth he has coming in and I was so thankful to be able to pass him off to the grandparents at 7 a.m. and get a little more sleep.  So thankful, in fact, that when my mom suggested that Miller and I stay a few more days I jumped on the chance before she could change her mind :)  So, that's where I've been until today when she and Bryant drove halfway to "exchange" us.  I have been enjoying life at Camp Gran and have a feeling that tomorrow will be a rude awakening when it's back to the real world.  Here are some pictures from our stay.  Some of them were taken with an iPhone and therefore may not be the best quality, but they still capture some great moments!
Gran made Miller some "popsicles" with water and he absolutely loved them!
 Then we tried one with apple juice in it and...
 
 On our way to the fireworks show on the fourth.
Sharing some food with Gran.  Yummy ;)
Miller made some new friends at the mexican restaurant on our way out of town and they let him try on their hat.  He's thrilled, can't you tell.

Alright, time to go hang with the hubby a bit.  It's been a while!

  1. What a fun week! Watching Miller "sit 'n spin", climb the long flight of stairs, climb onto and under tables, dishwasher, wine racks, whatever was there and working hard to rattle the gates in his way.... his activity level and speed continue to increase. Good thing we had lots of people around to keep up with him.He was a doll modeling Advantage Chiropractic Clinic clothing. Can't blame him on the face over the apple popsicle, what were we thinking? I tried it too....organic 100% apple juice with NO sugar....yuck. The new life jacket is a better fit, but still not his favorite thing. I can't wait for this week, it will be grand and we will have fun. love ya, Gran and Pop too!
