Sandy Springs Touch a Truck Day

I(2) would have stayed here all day if we could. He loved seeing and touching all the different kinds of trucks. He didn’t care at all for the bounce house or the bicycles, just put him in a truck and let him beep the horn – he’s in heaven.

Dogwood Festival Part 1

Daddy, Mommy, our friend Nate and I went to the Dogwood Festival. Friday’s are Mom and Dad’s favorite day to go because there’s not as many people. It was awesome, a little warm in the sun, but fun.

Mommy joined me for a little puppet show.

We had dinner there and listened to a great acoustic guitar from Francisco Vidal with Mimi and Gampa.

Hippo Hop

Hippo Hop has become a new favorite for I(2) and C(2). It’s on the calendar of activities at least twice a month, maybe more. Mom’s going to have to get a new multiple pass for I(2) soon!

Renaissance Festival 2012

We took I(2) and Lala to the Renaissance Festival this year. It turned out to be a hot one, very much like last year, except this year I(2) was much more interested in the activities and petting the sheep than last year.

We drove there during I(2)’s nap so that we could spend most of the afternoon taking in the sights.

The Hooch with M(3)

Lala and Star took M(3) and I(2) to the Hooch for a picnic lunch and explored the rocks and played a little soccer.

Looks like it was a good day!

Stone Mountain

I guess it would be a boring day if we only visiting the Hooch in the morning. So Pablo decided to take I(2) and Lala to Stone Mountain Park and hike up the granite.

It’s my understanding that Lala like it for the 1/2 half of the rock and asked that Pablo leave her there. Of course he didn’t and encouraged her by saying that she “already made it farther that Edie ever did.” Lovely, thanks Pablo!

Needless to say, they made it to the top and took the skylift down the mountain.

I think I(2)’s favorite part was stopping at the German restaurant for his 1st German pretzel!

The Hooch

We introduced Lala to the Chattahoochee trails we like to hike and I(2) had a great time exploring the caves and running the trails along the river.

Strawberry Picking at Warbington Farms

Daddy and Lala took me to Warbington Farms where we met up with my cousins, S (3), R(1.5),  E(4), N (3) and D(.9). Aunt A, Uncle S and Mimi and Gamp also came. It was an awesome day! I tried to help Daddy and Lala stock the basket with strawberries, but they were just so yummy that most of them went in my tummy.

I warmed up by taking a nap for the festivities of the day:

Next we went on a ride to feed the cows. We later told Mommy how one of them must have rolled around in mud or poop, because it smelled really bad.

My favorite part was the corn puddle. Even Aunt A came in for some fun with us!

Mommy was sad to have missed it, but she was showering a dear friend with a pampering day.

Yeah for Strawberry Day @ Warbington Farms!

Eating Peanut Butter

After we went to the park, I(2) helped himself to a little bit of peanut butter. He’s just tall enough to reach into the silverware drawer and get his own spoon and he knows that for this mission, he needs a long handled spoon.

C(2) and I had a fun time picking up the dino eggs at the Fernbank Museum. Mom and Dad were really proud of me, I scored 10 eggs. In them was erasers, bracelets and free coupons to the museum.

After the museum, we all went to lunch at Park Tavern where I just barely missed a hole in one. We would have been qualified for a round trip for 2 on Southwest Airs. Who knows all the fun places C(2) and I would have gone!
