Hard to Believe...

that September is here. And with it not even reaching 70 today it had a taste of Fall in the air today. It's been busy around here and with the kiddos in school, the "To Do" list is pretty long. Last month I made some tops for the girls and a dress for DH's cousin's DD. They turned out pretty cute and we took pics of them dressed up for DH's Grandpa. Below is the fabric I used. I bought it at Jo-Ann's and it is so darn cute...

The picture below is the end result...

And we are now in our 3rd week of school. Here is what the kiddos looked like the first day of school...

And Now It is August...

Summer has really flown by and in a little over 3 weeks, school begins, YAY!!!!! We've done some landscaping around here this Spring. I was surprised how well the Petunia's did, considering how much rain we had in May and June. They didn't grow for a while then in July they really blossomed. Had I known how big they were going to get, I would have planted them between the Boxwood's. I think I may plant some Mum's inbetween the Boxwoods for this Fall.



This is a rainbow I caught after some of the many rains we had this Summer.

July Already!

Summer is flying by! Now that softball and T-ball are over, it is time to get some projects done around here. We went down to ATL to see DH's sister over July 4th and had a fantastic time. The only exciting thing we did was go to the Braves Game. It was just nice to get away and relax. Here are some highlights from the Braves Game. Chick-fil-a had a big cow in the upper level in the outfield as their advertisement. The Coca-Cola bottle was really cool. Up close it is decorated with bases, baseball bats, baseball jersey's, gloves, catcher's gear, etc. Then when the Braves hit a Home Run, they shot fireworks out of it. Pretty Cool!

Over by where the above items are located is a kids area. They had an area where the kiddos could run before, during and after the game. We took the girls over there to blow off some steam before the game started. You started at home plate and ran to first base. They did this several times.

In the same area they had these really cool chairs that looked like giant Coke bottles. The one thing I love about Atlanta, there is a never ending supply of Coke products!

After the game there was about 15-20 minutes while they were getting ready for the fireworks show. They were playing some really cool music and Miss A and a girl in the row in front of her were dancing to the music. We got to see ourselves on the Jumbo Screen out in center field.

They had a really good Fireworks show after the game. It was all synchronized to the music they played in the stadium. Fabulous show!
