IHOP

We have been seeing that Red Velvet Pancakes commercial for IHOP for 2 weeks now and I HAD to go before school started back!  They were great!!!!!  Here are my pancakes.....

 Madden playing at the table waiting on the food

And Madden's chocolate chocolate chip pancake (Funny Face) with cool whip!

It was great!!!!!!!!

3rd Tooth Lost

Madden lost his 3rd tooth!  This one isn't not closely followed by a permanent tooth so I think we will have a hole for a while!  :>

He got $3 from the Tooth Fairy and immediately went out to the Dollar Store and bought some weaponry! :>

Adams Family Weekend

All the family got together for a WONDERFUL weekend of fun!  We got to meet the new additions, play and get to know the younger children more and spend time with the oldies but goodies.  It was such a great time.  It brought back so many memories and was like stepping back in time.  

I feel like I speak for all of us when I say that not everyone has a family like we do.  One where we can be apart but as soon as we are together again its like not time or space was ever there.  We are so blessed to have grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles and cousins that we love, trust and cherish the way we do.  And we will always have that bond, that love, thanks to Dolly and Granddaddy, who have established it for us. 

Thank you Dolly and Granddaddy.  We love you!

State Museum - Titanic exhibit too

We went to the State Museum to see the Titanic exhibit.  It was extremely cool!  We also explored the rest of the museum - check it out!

Blowfish Game

We went to the Columbia Blowfish game.  It turned out to the the Lexington County Public Library Reading night so it was very child-centered, which was entertaining for Madden.  The weather was great.  A storm was blowing by so there was a great breeze and it was slightly sprinkling at times :> 

Boone - summer 2012

We went to visit Nick and Sophie July 16-20.   We had a great time!  We visited with Sarah, Pace and Hannah, played at Wild Cat Lake, visited around Boone, took a hike and climbed some rocks and got to spend time with Nick and Sophie!  The temperature was cool and there were afternoon showers.  It was a great trip.  Unfortunately it was shorter than normal but thankfully they are coming here next weekend so we will get to see them soon!

Hilton Head Island

We took our annual trip to Hilton Head with Mom and Dad (Gicky and GaGa) the week of July 4th!  We had so much fun! 

Madden swam under the water, jumped off the side, swam under dad's legs and almost swam the width of the pool!  It was so much fun!  What a great time we had.  

It was a hot week!  The weather was good.  Only one storm.  And we got to watch fireworks from the balcony on the night of the 4th!
