Give Away Shout Out

I think I'm going to come out of my skin because of excitement for this camera bag giveaway.  On Simply Modern Mom you will find the coolest camera bag I've ever seen, and they are seriously giving it away.  (It will go perfect with the camera I'm buying this fall!!!)  Fingers crossed, and don't tell me if you win and I don't.  You know, salt in the wound.  Don't forget to check out all the other nooks and crannies of SMM, it is a fantastic site that I enjoy keeping up with.

Part 2 .... the last one was getting too long so scroll down & start there

Monday - Another fun filled day!  We went to a puppet show in Roswell, the kids seemed to enjoy it.  Charly had a very difficult time sitting still during the program, fortunately she was able to socialize with some other kids during the program.

 The show was a short version of the Jungle book, this is Mogly up close.

Since we were in the neighborhood, we headed over to the Spray Ground.  By far our favorite place this summer.  It was small enough that is was easy to keep an eye on the kids, it is fenced in and it only costs $1.  
 
 
 
 
 

Tuesday - According to Owen was the best day ever.  He got  a evening of Mom and Dad all to himself.  We ate at Zigglers BBQ (truly awesome) then went to see Toy Story 3 in 3D.  He really liked the glasses (just his size) and we splurged and bought cotton candy for him.  Then to top off the night he got to ride in Dad's car on the way home.  It really was fun to have a quiet evening with him. 


Yes.  That's right... All carbs for dinner.

I've got to give a shout out to NCG theater.  It really was as good as all the reviews claimed.  The place is clean, the concessions were much more reasonably priced than all the other theaters I've gone to and free refills on all sizes.  We went on a Tuesday night because I thought it wouldn't be crowded.  I was right, turns out Tuesday is a slow day and they offer the movies for $6.  Cool.


Wednesday - To Christi's house we go!  It was so nice to visit with everyone.  Miss Lula is growing fast and is soooo pretty!  The kids wanted to play with her like a doll.  Too bad you can't.  I have a video of her smiling, once again, new blogger... where is the video button? 


It's Been FOREVER!!

Since my last post anyway.  Sorry to any one who keeps up with us through the blog.  I'm just bored with the blogger and I make no promises as to when the next post will be.  It's been so long I will not even try to get caught up. So here are a few things we've been doing to keep busy this summer. 

A super fun birthday party at a GYM!
Charly wouldn't take a leap in to the pit so I nudged her and she fell in. 



 


So much fun!

Some where in the mix is one of my favorite summer pictures......

Boooooooooo! This is what happens when the door will not open. 

Fernbank Museum
A good friend of ours let us tag along for the day.  The kids loved the interactive areas.




Owen, Charly and Joe


Best I could do, the kids were moving faster than my camera would snap.  :) 

The Gecko exhibit was the best!  There were so many from around the world.  Loved it!


Biggest bubbles ever!

He would have stayed here all day if I'd let him.

Owen even gave the weather forecast. 

We Had A Birthday Shout Hurray!

Garett turned 37 on June 15th. We had a lovely evening and the kids practiced the birthday song all day and were ready when he got home.  Just curious, I have video and can't figure how to add it to the new and "improved" blogger.  Help!
