Georgia Mountains.

Wade and Gayle Monk (William's parents) bought a cabin in the Georgia Mountains. On Sunday, the family drove up to see it. They did a fabulous job renovating the cabin. William and Wade put cabinets and furniture together. Gayle and I organized the kitchen and hung the porch swing. We had a picnic lunch on the deck overlooking the incredible views. It was a lovely Sunday afternoon.

First Hair Cut

Thompson received his first hair cut at the Greystone Barber in Rome, GA. The same place his daddy got his first haircut and many of the ones to follow. His grandparents came to watch this monumental moment.

Party Planning

Last week our baby had his first illness; it led to an ear infection. TWM went for a check-up and his ear infection is now gone! Yay!
Thompson is having 2 parties for his 1st birthday. Why you may ask??? Well, mainly because our family can come Labor Day Weekend and most of Thompson's "friends" will be out of town. Also, I love to throw a party! ;) The theme is: All Things 1. Invitations will be going out soon.

The Party Dates Are:
Sunday, September 6th 4pm-7pm for BBQ, Cake and Ice cream
(We are asking all family to come to this one)

Or

Sunday, September 20th 3pm-5pm for Cake and Ice cream

My Brother's, Mom, Jessie, and Caroline came for a visit on their way back from the beach. We met at Hoppop's house and then went to the Chick-Fil-A dwarf house.
