On the road again...

Off we go to "Hotlanta" - while actually, Buford, which is right above Atlanta. But being from the South not only are all sodas "Coke" but everything North of Macon is "Atlanta".
We are heading up for the Georgia Moomba Jamboree. Moomba is the brand of boat we own so it is an owner's reunion of sorts. Atlanta Marine is hosting and they are slated to give out some pretty big door prizes. I hope we come home with something really cool! I new board would be great but I'll settle for a t-shirt too.
So off to finish packing up. Please keep safe travels for us in your prayers. I am secure in Monty's impeccable ability to handle the truck and boat but it is all the other drivers on the long stretch of road that concerns me.
Have a great weekend!

Lordy, Lordy....look who is 40!!

Happy Birthday Shirley!!!
We LOVE you!!!

Look who we caught smiling! Fake-goofy smile...but nonetheless, smiling BIG!! Love you Monty!

July 4th Weekend

This post is mainly pictures. The last picture pretty much sums up how I feel right now too. Details to follow later this week.

Hope you all had a safe and happy holiday weekend!

Weekend Boating

Hi - still feeling kind of drained so not much to post except some pictures. These are from the boat this weekend. Bug and his Daddy loved the 2 man tube. You can barely see Bug's face over the top - LOL.

Also, that big "swan duck" thing scared me pretty good. It got mad when Monty ran it off from us. You can see the picture where it is walking off and its feathers are all bowed out. I think he was growling too. Bug was not happy when it came up either - he was saying "No swan duck, no. Go away swan duck, go." And I was agreeing.

Beach Video

Sorry I have been such a slacker on blogging. I have been struggling with some allergy issues the last few days. I haven't been feeling too skippy to say the least. I did finally figure out how to post a video. DUH - I had been trying to upload through photos instead of the video button. Oh well, I never claimed to be a computer genius!

Anywho, this is Bug at the Baytowne Wharf on our last night at the beach. He had not had a nap that day. I know....he is running around like a wild man. He had found himself a little audience at the back of the green. He is such a HAM. I keep thinking his career path could be a politician (he talks, waves to complete strangers), a stunt man (he is constantly leaping off furniture and purposely falling), and now, a circus entertainer. That woud be my luck - attend FSU's circus school....

Enjoy his antics!

Hey Mrs. Shirley....

....Bug asked about you last night. He wanted you to stay instead of just dropping me off. He also said he wanted to play with Emily. So since he couldn't have either, I gave him the B&B Works bag instead.


He LOVES it.

Beach - 2nd part

After a fun filled evening on Friday night here, we woke up Saturday AM feeling rested (well, Monty didn't - he is a light sleeper) and hit the beach first thing. Thankfully, we were able to get one of those nifty umbrellas with 2 lounge chairs. Lane also met a friend that day, Jenny. She is from NJ and is 3 yrs old. They became fast friends and had lots of fun playing in the sand. Monty and I were quite happy because we could actually sit back and relax.

As you can see in the above picture, Lane was very upset when Jenny took back one of HER toys to play with it. Also, you can note that Jenny is not upset at all that Lane is crying and pitching a fit. We had a quick talk and things were back to normal again.

We went to dinner and thank heavens for little matchbox cars. Those seem to be the only thing to hold Bug's attention these days. He played with a few through the entire dinner and luckily we sat outside at the grille there at the Hilton. We all enjoyed the dinning experience that night.

Then we loaded up on the "school bus" as Lane called it and went back to Baytowne Wharf. Lane had not napped so we took his stroller. It is one of the rare times when he actually rode in it. He drove the boats and played on the playground.

I will get the video posted later. For some reason, (probably the operator) I can't get it uploaded.
