Matthew's First Day of School


Matthew started Pre-K on August 17, 2009. I can't believe how quickly he is growing. When did my baby get so big!!!

He has been very excited about school this year. He loves each and every minute. He is making friends and learning a lot.

Here he is on his first day of school. Matthew loves music. He loves to sing and play instruments. He has two guitars that he carries around the house with him for when he has the urge to "rock" out. Hence the shirt.

Here are a few more shots....

And our summer is over!!!


Wow, time flies so quickly these days. Where did the summer go???? The kids started back to school here on August 10th. We spent our summer days playing outside, playing inside and by the pool. We all sported quite a summer tan.

The kids are loving being back in school. They are having fun reconnecting with friends and meeting new ones. They both have great teachers this year and I am looking forward to them growing and learning.

Here is a photo of John and Sarah on their first day back. I just can't believe how much they have grown. For reference, you can look here here for pictures of them just last year on their first day of school.

World of Coke and Our Last Hurrah!!!

At the end of July, Nanny and Papa came and stayed a week with us. We had great plans but the weather did not cooperate. So we scrapped all of our original plans and made new ones. All of our new ones included indoor activities. We went to the movies and saw Ice Age 2...Dawn of the Dinosaur. I would highly recommend this movie. It was very funny. We went *GASP* shopping. We went to the World of Coke. The World of Coke has been relocated to downtown Atlanta in Centennial Olympic Park. The new museum is fantastic. It has a great 4D movie. The kids LOVED it!!! The sampling room is always a favorite. They have over 60 different fountain drinks from around the world. You can drink as much or as little as you want. There are no limits. You will however succumb to the sugar and stop. On the way out, we were each given a small glass bottle of Coke to take home with us. Matthew could not stop talking about his "beer". He couldn't wait to get home to drink it. He wanted it for breakfast the next day. Finally, we purchased ice cream and created Coke floats. The kids loved them. It was a success!!!!

Fourth of July.....

Each year we attend the annual Peachtree City Golf Cart Parade. It is so much fun. The kids had a wonderful time and it was a perfect day.

Here are the highlights.

June 2009

Wow!!! I can't believe the summer as flown by and school has begun. I haven't updated our family blog in months.


Here are some photos that summarize what we did this summer....



In June, we took a trip to the beach. We spent one week in Gulf Shores, Alabama. This was my kids first trip. Needless to say, they LOVED every minute of it and can't wait to return.









We just generally had a wonderful time. We ate and played and enjoyed our family!!!!
