Vogel

Last weekend we took our annual trip to Vogel State Park.  Michelle & Victoria camped with Granddaddy.  

Zona came too.  His barking chased a bear away from our camper one night.  

On Thursday we drove over to the Georgia Mountain Fair in Hiawassee.  

 The kids rode rides while Granddaddy listening to the bluegrass music.  

I think he liked that ride!

On Friday we hiked to Helton Creek Falls.  

 On Saturday we had our family reunion.  

Later that day we did our first geocaching.  

 We found it!!!

 They got toys out of the box.  

It was another fun trip to Vogel.  

Girls' Special Day

The girls enjoyed a double special day.  They were dressed for a fun day.  

 We did a little clothes shopping

and shoe shopping.  

Daddy was really excited!!

The real fun was about to begin.  We took them to the American Girl store & had lunch at their bistro.  

They loved all the babies.  

 Dad was in his element again - HA!!

 We looked in the store for almost an hour before lunch.  

 Such sweet sisters.  

 We borrowed dolls to have lunch with.  

 Charlotte of course got pasta.  

 Ellie got her favorite - hot dogs!

 While the girls were in the bathroom, daddy went and bought them each a doll.  

 Charlotte got one that looked like her and named her Scarlett.  

 Ellie got the doll of the year - named Grace.  She's a baker from France.  

 They absolutely loved it.  

 Thank you Daddy!

 We did a little more shopping then stopped at McDonald's for smoothies.  

 Evan stayed with Granddaddy and went fishing.  We brought him home some treats too.

 On Sunday they took their dolls to church with them.  

These 2 girls are our American Girls!
