Georgia

We spent the week of the 4th of July at my parents house in Georgia, along with my sister and her family as well. We had a great time swimming in the pool, enjoyed a fish fry, went shooting on the farm, and churned homemade ice cream. Most of the pictures that I have of my parents and my sister from that week are of them holding Mason or Josiah, so like most of my recent posts I'm going to have to wait until after the adoption to post those photos.

We had fun with Mitch's new water proof phone case, lifeproof. It held up really well, and helped us take some fun pictures under water :)

The kids played with these "pool frogs" all week

Water friendly cards

Because of the weather we weren't able to see fireworks, so we lit sparklers instead 

I think there is a rule in GA that everyone must learn how to shoot a gun ;)

Charleston

This past June we took our family of 6 to Charleston. We had a great time, Charleston is so beautiful! My photos below are a little out of order, and hopefully in a few months I'll be able to edit this post to show more pictures of Mason and Jojo. While in Charleston we enjoyed the beautiful and historic downtown area, Fort Sumter, the aquarium, and the beach. 

The kids jumped off this sidewalk to collect seashells

They're acting like baby eagles 

Skylar likes to feed the seagulls at the beach, this is always so funny to watch

Mason really enjoyed the water, Jojo not so much

I loved this baby tent that we borrowed from a friend, if you have a baby on the beach, this is a must have

Jojo is wore out from being carried all day :)
