The Best Part About Georgia

The reason we love Georgia so much is because we live so close to my sister and her family. There is nothing better than sharing milk and cookies with your cousins!

Georgia Birthday Party


Last weekend Chase and Nolan were invited to a birthday party. The theme was tractors. When we arrived at the home of the grandparents of Cayden (the birthday boy) they had about 5 or 6 huge tractors parked in the front yard for the party. My kids were the happiest I have ever seen them. They ran from one tractor to the next for about an hour.

This yard consisted of 24 acres of lush greenery and a pond for the kids to fish in at the end of the party...and it was stocked full of catfish...luckily, for me, the kids did not catch anything. Catfish are a little creepy looking.

Some of the older kids that attended the party were being entertained by the mini go-karts. Hank thought it would be "fun" to teach our boys how to drive the go-karts. Chase liked it, but Nolan refused to get off it once he learned he could do it all by himself. For those of you who are wondering if we have completely lost our minds letting our children drive a go-kart by themselves...they only go about 3-4 mph. I love this picture of Nolan with his foot just casually "resting" on the gas pedal.

Pumpkin Patch 2007

I have finally succumbed to the world of blogging and decided to write my first entry.
Unfortunately, I have nothing funny to report on, just the annual trip to the pumpkin patch.
My sister and I decided to muster up the courage to take all 4 kids. After about 1 hour of being there we were tired and ready to go home. The kids on the other hand, could have stayed all day. They had the greatest time, which of course made it worth our time!
