Fern Bank with Georiga + Burruss Luau

John has gone from cars to dinosaurs.  He loves dinosaurs and we are big fans of the Fern Bank.

 They were fascinated with the dinosaur eggs.  I think they thought they were going to hatch :)

 Crazy boys.  I had a fun afternoon with those two.

A.L. Burruss has the BEST parties.  The back to school Luau was a great time.

 John was a shark.

 Pretty, Sweet Girls.

Fun night for all.

John's 1st Day of 3K, Ella Kate GrandParents Day, Trip to B'ham

Johnny Boys first day of 3K.  He has the sweetest teachers, Mrs. Jill and Mrs. Susan and absolutely LOVES 3K. 

 Our baby boy is growing up fast.

 He loves his lunch box and going to lunch bunch.

 John can only handle so many serious pictures :)

 Ready to go inside and get started with his day.

 He is off - never looked back.  His is carrying his "homework" a picture that he drew for his teacher.  He wants to do his "homework" every night just like Ella Kate.

 John and Mrs. Jill.

 A quick picture of one of Ella Kate's projects.  She pretty much did this all by herself.  I just helped her with the hot glue.

Burruss Grandparents Day!  We are so thankful for our grandparents and she was so excited that Papa and LeLe were able to come this year.

 John loves visiting Ella Kate at Burruss.

Pictures from a recent trip to B'ham to meet our new cousin Loxlee Lynn and see Uncle Harold and Aunt Janice.  I did a terrible job of taking pictures on this trip but I did manage to snag a great picture of Uncle Harold with Ella Kate and John.  This is a treasured picture for me.

 Uncle Harold with "stink" and "stunk" the nicknames he game Tina and I when we were little :)

 John loves dogs and Uncle Harold's neighbors dog came over to visit and play.  Ella Kate showed off her tumbling skills.
