Awesome August

In an attempt to fit as much fun as possible
into the 3 weeks before school started
here's what we did...


Played with Isaac and Cara at the Nevin Park sprayground

stayed in our pajamas all day

and blew rasberries on the footstool

ran around and around the activity table from Grandma

went to a farmers market with Allison and Oscar

learned to rub our head all over the floor 
so our hair would stand up with static

played with Pop in the baby pool

turned the sandbox into a pool
on a hot day at Nana's house

went to the park to swing

added to Owen's string collection (from Nana's sewing stuff)
and attached one to the van door handle for easy access

had our first minor injury
(fell on his chin at the pool - no stitches, the doctor just glued it together)

went on a trip to Floyd, VA
to see our friends Katie and Mike

skipped rocks in the river with Daddy and Mike

and those of us who were too young to know how to skip rocks
just tried to eat them instead

spent lots of time hanging out on the porch

and relaxing in the hammock

went to Mabry Mill on the Blue Ridge Parkway

spent more time relaxing and playing in the grass

Did I mention we spent lots of time relaxing?

learned to play cornhole

And since we had so much fun relaxing in the hammock,
when we got home, we decided to hang one in our backyard 
so we could feel like we were on vacation all the time!

And last, but not least, had a fun little playdate
with our sweet friend Jessie!
