LDC's 8th

LDC's 8th Birthday Party Weekend
Camping
Mistletoe State Park, GA
Hayrides, rain, canoeing, lake wind advisories, sweating, sunshine, marshmallows, pumpkin decorating...in three days- we had a little bit of everything and anything. 
Lots and lots of smiles.

Mother Nature is Always Speaking

Hurricane season brings a humbling reminder that, 
despite our technologies, 
most of nature remains unpredictable.

8

Don't judge.
LDC requested an ice cream sandwich birthday cake.
I happily accepted. 
Especially since her birthday fell in the middle of the work/school week.

Voila'.

We escaped to Salem the following weekend
so she soaked in being spoiled by Granise and Grandpa
and had "round 2" of a birthday.





Girls Weekend

It was not looking good for a September BFF getaway to Charleston 
but...
Ain't No Stoppin Us Now
We're on the move!
Ain't No Stoppin Us Now!
We've got the groove!
There's been so many things that's held us down
But now it looks like things are finally comin' around
I know we've got, a long long way to go
And where we'll end up, I don't know
But we won't let nothin' hold us back

There is always a silver lining

We currently attended
LDC's Art Expo Event
(awesome Koi pond creation)

AND...
our summer wrapped up.
This picture was from our last weekend of the summer....
Sigh.
BUT every cloud has a silver lining.


First Day of School
Bye Summer
Hello 2nd grade for LDC
