From a summer camp at the base of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range in Westcliffe, Colorado to our home in a subdivision called Woodlawn... we would like to share our life and love with you through the posts and pics found here.
This weekend we met my parents and some friends in Dahlonega to do some camping. Bets and Papa watched Griffin in their camper for us on Friday night while we froze our rears off in a tent. Then on Saturday, we joined them in the cozy camper. We didn't get as many pictures as I would have liked, but we did get a few shots.
We took a picnic to Vogel State Park and enjoyed a walk around the lake. The leaves haven't all changed, but I am sure in another couple of weeks it is going to be even more gorgeous up there. Griffin was loving playing in the leaves and just being outside in general. Then we went over to Helen to see what was happening at Oktoberfest. Helen was crazy busy with lots of people, but we did stick around long enough to eat a Funnel Cake and some fudge :) Yeah for pumpkins!! Then it was home to play in the dirt with Daddy... Future site of Blake's fire pit: How was your weekend??
Daddy came to Gymboree class this morning, so I was able to snap some shots of Griffin in action. He LOVES this place and so do I!! Here are a couple of pictures that we took in the front yard the other day. Isn't he handsome?
Warning: this blog post is slightly random, but I had some cute pictures that I wanted to share!
We have been having lots of fun with our little guy lately. He is full of energy and loves exploring new places. We take a walk around the yard every day so that he can learn to walk on the different slopes in the back yard. Here he is showing his dad his skillz. Last weekend we were in Birmingham for a night as we were making our way to Starkville to watch the Bulldogs massacre the Bulldogs. While we were there, Gail pulled out an old Halloween costume of Blake's for Griffin to try on. The hat is a little snug, but the poncho fits great! Hola! Then, this past Tuesday night our friends Wade and Dawn invited us to watch the Braves play the Marlins. They won and Wade caught a foul ball that was heading straight for us! This morning we headed to Sims Lake for a little bike ride along the trail. Griffin tagged along in a little cart that Blake got for his birthday this year. He loved it!! Here he is taking the cart on a test run on Friday night in the cul-de-sac. While we were at the park, Griffin played on the playground for a bit before we strapped him into the cart. He LOVED climbing the stairs, walking in the wood chips and looking around at all of the playground equipment. Here are a few fun shots. Doesn't he look so big?? In this picture he is looking at a tree and saying his new favorite phrase (and mine too), "OH WOW!!"
