Lots of Company!

Just before school let out my sweet friend Jamie drove to Charlotte from Newnan, GA and spent some time with us.  She was needing some time away, so she left her 2 little boys at home and came on a solo trip.  We didn't have a ton of time together, but we made the most of it and did a little exploring.  We went to Freedom Park and out to lunch on Saturday.  We spent a lot of time just visiting and catching up at our house.  It was so nice to see her!

Then in early June April and Lydia came to visit (along with 4 kiddos)!  It was a crazy few days, but much fun was had by all!  All 7 kids slept amazingly well and we were all very surprised.   It was nice having a few days to catch up and let the kids play.  We ventured out a bit and had a couple of crazy adventures ;)

And later in June my friend Katie came up from Tallahassee!  She brought both of her boys this time and it was so good to see them!  We had a close call the night they got here when her oldest son started throwing up.  Katie decided to take all of them to a hotel that night (though I insisted she stay) and by the next morning he was all better.  We took the kids to the movies and then to lunch, followed by a trip to the pool later that afternoon.  The next day we checked out Ray's Splash Planet, an indoor water park here in town.  Katie is such a special friend to me and was one of the very first people I met when we moved to Tallahassee (at Chick fil A, of course!)  I love her to pieces!  Somehow I never got a picture of Katie or her kids while they were here, but I did snap this one of Maclain floating down the Lazy River.  She loved it. :)

Both mine and Daniel's parents also came this summer!  We have had a full summer of company and lots of fun and would not change a thing!
