Happy (late) Father’s Day!

My dad and I went to a Braves game for Father’s Day… It was nice to do something with him because my mom and I hang out all the time, but I don’t do much with my dad. Anyway, it was a cool night with a breeze (due to storms north of us) and we had good seats near first base. Here is the view from our seats - we could actually see much better than it looks like in the picture.


My favorite part of the night was when a ball was hit a few seats in front of us – it was pretty exciting.

AOC Picnic

Travis and I went to the Annual AOC Picnic (it was our first one) on Saturday. It was a lot of fun and reminded me of going to camp - and like kids, we all enjoyed putting on the fake tattoos that they had there. There were also a lot of games (volleyball, frisbee, ladder ball, assassin, tug of war, relay races, etc…) and it was on the lake, so a lot of people went swimming. There was even a band there made up of people that are in the AOC group. Here are some pictures from the event:





I'm glad we joined this club... we haven't gone to many events yet, but I've had fun at all of them that we have gone to and everyone is really nice.

Schools Out for Summer!

School has been out for several weeks now and I have been very lazy about bothering to blog. I guess it just hasn’t been on my mind because I haven’t been sitting at my computer at work. However, I am going to Vegas next week, so I have been on the computer a lot lately looking up stuff to do while there. I will write about the highlights of the Vegas trip and post pictures of that next week, but I guess I should catch up on the major events of the first part of the summer for now…

First, my brother had some friends over to his place at the lake. There were several dogs there for Bailey to play with and we all had a great time swimming.




Then, my parents went out of town for a week and I babysat Lucky while they were gone.


Since my parents live on Lake Lanier, Heather, Sarah, and Travis all spent some time hanging out there with me. I was happy that they both came up to enjoy the lake – we were able to hang out at the dock and take the boat out. Also, it made staying there more like a vacation than house sitting…




Here are some other events from the summer: I got Bailey a kiddie pool from Wal-Mart, pretended to exercise on the Wii Fit, went shopping with my mom, hung out with Heather, played poker, went on an AOC (Atlanta Outdoor Club) bike ride in Peachtree City, and went to a family reunion on Father's Day that was actually not until the next week.
