Summer Fun

Emily now has hair long enough to put into pig tails. I guess that is the right terminology. Pretty cute girl if I say so myself.


We went to Music on Main last week and enjoyed some live music. They were playing bluegrass and it was fun to get out and play in the grass and stuff. Emily and I are taking in the view at the pond at Cleveland Park here in Spartanburg. The also have a train that kids can ride on, but it is only open on the weekends so we missed out. Maybe next time.
I have officially started the job hunt. I hope to be working by the 1st of August. I hope I can fine something I enjoy. I have interviewed with a couple company's already and we will see how that goes. I am not rushing into anything, I have to be excited about the opportunity, that is the criteria for the job, and to be able to support the family of course.

Father's Day

This Father's Day was great. Earlier in the week I was able to teach Emily about PS3 and as you can see she has a way to go before beating her dad.

We also went to Summerville to see Granddad. We helped him fix up one of the bedrooms so we could have a nice new bedroom when we visit. We had alot of fun and Emily enjoyed swinging with Granddad on the back patio. Greg and Mellie (Adrianne's Bro and wife) came on Friday and stayed until Saturday and Stephanie and Jason ( Adrianne's sister and husband) came on Saturday. It was great to have the entire family together for the father's day weekend.
Sunday we gathered at Poppy's (Ben's Dad) and Gamm's house for supper and celebrated Poppy's B-day as well as father's day. Again every one was there we forgot the camera so sorry no pictures. Elizabeth had a camera so we will get those pictures soon.

We hope all you fathers had a great day and for those who have no kids "getha some" only if you are happily married though. We do not want any baby's daddy's or mama's running around.

First Trip to the Pool

So our neighborhood has a pool and we finally got the key so we could use it this week. One of Adrianne's friends from Mt. Pleasant came up and we decided to try the pool. And as any good young girl the pool is a place you have got to have a great outfit. Here is the girls getting ready.



Emily has this cool float, but it just does not give a lot of support so she only stayed in it about 2 minutes.
Once back in the safety of dry land and getting her cup of water she was ok again. We did go back into the pool and she did enjoy it. We shall try again very soon.
