The Kings come to Hartwell

Happy early Birthday

Chris picked out new bikes for  Lexy & Hannah for their birthdays....we picked them up on our way to the  lake for the weekend....so exciting - smiley face

an Abby/Mommy zoo date

Lexy and Hannah were in NASA's soccer camp all week (even though Hannah was too young, Chris asked & their coach let her participate for  half  days....IMPRESSIVE all they learned in a week) so  Abby & I had  some one on one time...one of our mornings she got  her hair done all fancy for a trip to the zoo with some neighbors...smiley face.  She  was very specific about what she wanted photographed (her favorite of the day - the giraffe & zebra - and gorilla statues) and how she  had never  ridden the train & carousel there (which very well may be close to true - having three girls there I very rarely spring for the extra tickets anymore  - ha ha- smiley face).  Fun morning  with a girl who shines outloud when by herself

Bowling

Our new neighbor invited us to celebrate her daughter's birthday with them at the bowling alley - it was our first trip of the summer as a family (Lexy had been w/ a playdate where she showed everyone up with an impressive 125 score!).  We had  fun - smiley face

a fun Sunday....

what started out as a trip to Uncle Jason & Aunt Missy's to be a pool day while Daddy & Uncle Jason fixed my car turned  into a fun time at the pool with everyone (Lexy & Hannah went down the incredible slide at the pool at least 10 times...Abby even tried it) - Aunt Dana was in town w/ her nephew Landon so Nana & Papa ended up having EVERYONE over for dinner - good family times - great memories...smiley face.
