Cassidy's first playdate!


Cassidy had her first playdate recently. Our next door neighbor asked us to watch their youngest. It was fun watching them play together. She is 8 months younger than Cassidy.

Atlanta Visit



We were busy during our trip to Atlanta last month. As usual, I didn't end up with too many pictures. I find I have more time for pictures in Rome than when in Atlanta. We went to the Atlanta Children's museum and had a great time. Mom and I may have been scammed in the parking lot but once we got inside, the kids had a blast. They ran in opposite directions and kept mom and I busy. Cassidy loved the moon sand station and the painting station. You can see her artwork below. Campbell loved the fishing and the giant crane the most. We tried to sit for a show but miss Cassidy thought she should be in the show! Mom and Campbell watched the show while Cassidy fished for a bit. We saw the Duluth fireworks on the 3rd. It was a great event. I don't know if Cass was scared or amazed. She was in the middle of something and stopped instantly when it started and just sat and took it all in until it was over. She did not move or say a thing. Campbell likes them but gets a bit nervous. We had a great trip!



Rome & Cave Springs Visit

We had a good time in Rome and at the land in Cave Springs last month. Campbell had so much fun fishing. We made our first S'mores. The kids LOVED them. I thought they were quite yummy myself. We spent time at the park. The kids rode with Poppy on the 4-wheeler. The trip wore Cassidy out so much that she passed out from exhaustion riding the 4-wheeler. I got a great video of Campbell fishing and will have to put that up a little later as I want to get some other pictures and posts up first.
















The Beach

No excuses, I have slacked BIG time. So I will be posting a lot to catch us up.

Earlier in the summer we took a trip to the beach. I have no idea why we don't do this more. Oh wait, its the sand that gets everywhere! Anyway, we had a good time. Cassidy walked up to the water, then turned around and decided she wasn't sure about it. A few minutes later, she was loving it! Here are a few pictures from the trip.
