Pigs, Dogs, and Dinosaurs

Woo! A lot has been done this week! I hope I can remember it all!

Julie and I decided to go geocaching (I know, I'm like ten years late), but it was really fun. There's a good bit of things to find around me, so hopefully I can do it some more!

Literally last Thursday I was asked to make cupcakes for Saturday. It didn't seem too bad and she liked the ideas I had, so I accepted. Friday morning, she asked if there was any way I could double it, but luckily I didn't have to go back out for more ingredients. I'm really happy the way they turned out. She wanted half The Little Mermaid and half dinosaur-theme, which we decided to do footprints.

Saturday, we went to Pigs n Peaches again this year and got a family photo. Julie, Grammy, and Grandpa join us this year and we ate lots and lots of BBQ!

Sunday, we had lunch with the Sullivan's, which is a pretty common thing, but I snapped this cute pic of Rusty, Keith, and Adam.

I tried out the new blender again - this time with strawberry ice cream. It was delicious! It isn't as healthy as the banana one because it uses cream, but that made it even more delicious!

National Dog Day has come again and I was able to get a picture with Adam and Kirby. Here's a comparison between it and last year. Crazy!

Julie, Adam, and I tried out a new park today. It's about the same distance as our normal park, but not as big. We really enjoyed the change of pace and trying out new things. I can definitely see us switching between the two from here on out.

New Blender, New Shoes

The weather has been really amazing this week! We got to have tons of play time outside. We even got to play outside once Rusty got home, so he and Adam played tag.

 

We've been meaning to visit Rusty's mom (Memaw) at work and finally got around to it this week. She introduced him to all her co-workers at the eye doctor and went out to lunch with her. She was really excited to see us (especially Adam). Julie came with us too, so all she was missing was Rusty.

 

After church on Sunday, my parents watched Adam, so Rusty and I could do an escape room for a friend's birthday. There are several in Atlanta, but we went to Ultimate Escape Game Atlanta. It was really awesome! I recommend it to everyone. It is such an adrenaline rush and the hour ticks down so quickly. I can't wait to go back to try the other rooms.

We received two new things this week. Adam got a new pair of shoes. These are his first "real" pair. He's tripped a bit more than he was - probably because the soles are larger and harder - but he'll get used to them. He really likes wearing them though.

The second new thing is my blender! My old one started smoking a week or so ago when I tried to make banana ice cream, so after much research, I went with a Ninja Professional Blender - AND I LOVE IT! It made the banana ice cream the first night with no problems at all! Delicious!

Now that Adam has his new hair, I bought some kid hair spray and made his hair into a fohawk. He touches his hair quite a bit, so it wasn't perfect for long, but long enough to snap some cute photos.
