Happy 4th of July!!!

The summer is flying by and we are enjoying every minute with Carson. Here is a picture of Carson with his best friend Carson on the 4th! It's so fun to watch these two little guys as they really begin to interact with each other. Thanks to the Beck's for hosting us on the 4th.


The lake seems to be taking up most of our weekends but that was before the opening of the Westhaven pool...it's going to be very hard to get away now that the pool is open. I hope you will all be able to see it soon, it's truly spectacular, something you'd see at a Disney resort. While at the lake, Carson enjoys "driving" the boat. He's a great co-captain.

Other lake news, although lake, it's still news...on Memorial Day, we took my Grandaddy for a boat ride. Grandaddy hadn't been on a boat in years. This picture is of my cousin Julie, me, and Grandaddy.

May 22, first day at the beach

May 22 - our first day at the beach and as expected, Carson has NO fear...he ran right out in the water like a little fish. The problem is, he can't swim. He really enjoyed sitting in the sand (yes, Jen, the sand) and feeling the water wash over his feet and legs. When we wanted to go for a walk up and down the beach, Carson just wanted to sit, so sit we did ;o) I have a feeling this is going to be a much different vacation than what we are used to...

On Ashea and Jason's recommendation (they were just here), we ate dinner at Steamer's Seafood. The owner is from Kentucky and the restaurant is decorated in all things KY. We had a great dinner complete with birthday cake ice cream (it's ice cream that tastes like birthday cake...weird!) and key lime pie. Carson blew everyone in the restaurant a kiss...he's such a ham! I had a great 37th birthday today!

May 21 - Jason surprised me with a birthday trip to Hilton Head Island...wow, was I surprised. He gave me the airline tickets on May 20 at the lake and we didn't get home to pack until May 21, 11:00 am. Our plane left at 6:30 pm. But it all worked out, we are here save and sound and Maggie is at the kennel for the first time in 7 years.

Here are is Carson hanging out in the Delta Crown Room at the Atlanta airport...this boy already knows how to travel.
