Mill Mountain Zoo




Joan and Bill took us to the Mill Mountain Zoo the other day. It's a pretty small zoo and one of the two most exciting things was the bird exhibit. You can be right there with the exotic birds. One was particularly interesting because it was taking it's food and dipping it in water in a little routine. Hannah almost wouldn't stay in the exhibit because it was stinky. It was a lot of fun, though! The train ride and the playground were the biggest hit.

A Hawk in the City


A Hawk was waiting for us with his breakfast (a pigeon) on our front lawn two days ago. Crazy.

Play time


I love Little Red Riding Hood.





We stayed at Shishaw and Papaw's house last week while Corey was in Minnesota. One day we built a fort out of the thousands of table cloths Vicki has. They played in it, but mostly they were sleeping princesses running back and forth in it.

6 Little Girls: 0,1,2,3,4,& 5






At the end of the week the Andersons joined us for two nights. It was so much fun to have them! It gave the girls some new excitement for their last days, which they needed. All 6 of them on the couch is so cute! All 6 of them in a small condo is so crazy! 4 of them on Shishaw's lap is hilarious.

Story Time




The girls got to read A LOT of stories with everyone over the week. They spent a really long time reading Bible stories with Uncle Kevin, which turned into everyone listening to the stories. He reads very well!

Shiloah told Papaw that she did not like his new hairstyle, even though she loves him very much. What do you think?

Daddy and Norah



She took a few days to get comfortable with the sand and the ocean. By the end of our week at the beach she was pretty good, of course. She was quite happy to be escorted by her handsome father into the ocean and get splashed by some of the waves, though.
