Chipee & Betsy's July 2009

These are pictures from our trip to Lawrenceville, GA to visit with Aunt Betsy and Uncle Chipee. We arrived on Thursday night...ate, shopped, swam, ate some more, had cake, colored, and were introduced to the world of play dough. All in all, it was a fabulous weekend and hopefully we were decent enough house guests that we'll be invited back next summer.


Everyone coloring in harmony at Chipee's....well for about 5 seconds. Colin hasn't quite mastered the art of sharing or letting others color with him. He refuses to let me or anyone else color with him and abruptly takes your crayon away. Poor Mallory. Oh well, something to work towards.


Don't let my appearance fool you....that water was COLD!! If it wasn't for Colin, mommy wouldn't have been IN the pool but lounging BY the pool. Regardless of temperature, Colin loves the water. He loved getting out of the pool and climbing back in by way of the ladder.


Grammy and D.J. Mallie Mal posing for the camera. Unfortunately, no pix of cousion Mallory and Colin in the pool together. They were on alternating nap schedules so ended up taking turns being the center of attention in the water.


I love this picture of the "girls". Grammy, Aunt Betsy, and Cousin Mallory all enjoying the pool and warm weather.



I think the saying goes "anthing goes at aunt betsy and uncle chipee's". And you can see that the theory is true based on the nutty buddy in one hand and popsicle in the other picture. Colin quite enjoyed the entire visit from plane ride, double desserts, swimming, bath time, to giant coloring books and his first experience with playdough. I hear Erin has lots to teach him.



I know you guys have seen this one before. But he's just so cute, I had to add it in one more time :)
