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!  

4th of July

God Bless America!  God has definitely blessed us.  

 We got dressed in our Red, White & Blue and headed to church for lunch.  

 The kids played and had a good time.  

 We went to Demorest to watch the fireworks and the kids got to get their face painted.  

My 3 blessings!

Evan's Special Day 2015

On June 27th we went on Evan's special day for the summer.  First he had to go build Captain America's motorcycle at Lowe's.

 He decided he wanted to go fishing on his day.  We headed up Hwy 197 to Mark of the Potter to look at all the huge trout.  

 Of course we had to get an ice cold Yoohoo!

Then we drove up to Moccasin Creek to fish in the creek for some trout.  We got some corn and he was ready.  

 We really couldn't see too many fish, so we moved spots.  

 We could see a few around a rock and he hooked one.  

 He caught 3 fish total.  

 He was so excited and couldn't wait to tell Granddaddy.  

 We moved to the bridge, but he was pretty much over it since he had already caught 3.  

 He played for a few minutes on the campground playground.  

After fishing we went to LaPrade's Marina on Lake Burton and ate lunch at Chophouse on the deck looking at the lake.  It was a cloudy day, so it was not too hot.  He got a steak all to himself, so he was a happy guy.  

After lunch we drove over to Helen.  We went and played in the river 

 Such a sweet boy!

 Then we headed over to Smithgall Woods State Park.  We checked out their little animal area.  

 We went on a little hike trying to find a geocache.  Our GPS wasn't working, so we just turned back around.  

 Before heading home we stopped in town for a treat!  

It was a great day and I hope he remembers it for a long time.
