More Fun in Atlanta

I finally had a little time so I decided I should finish up our trip to Atlanta before the summer was over. Sorry this post is so long - what can I say - I take a lot of pictures!! :)
Doing a little reading before bed

Getting ready for an outing on the golf cart. For those of you who don't know, Jeremy and Jody live in a town that has special golf cart paths - they can get pretty much anywhere in town on their golf cart - some people even have smaller golf cart garages attached to their houses - it's pretty neat and saves a lot of gas $! Keegan loves riding on it!!

We had some fun at Jump 2 It one day - a large indoor facility with giant inflatables - good times!

Keegan going down the slide


This is the bottom of the staircase or, aka the "naughty step". Keegan and Scarlett both spent some time there this week and they were always intrigued when the other one had to go there. Usually, one of them would try to visit with the other one - it was pretty funny

Keegan was getting way too wet playing in the water at the Children's museum so I finally made him wear this rain jacket. It was too cute! This was the best I pic I could get of him in it.


Operating the crane (I think that's what it is!)

The girls all being silly - nice camerwork, huh?!


Keegan and Scarlett played well together most of the time - they really seemed to have a good time together - it was fun watching them play


Fiona took Keegan cruisin' in her Barbie jeep - he loved it!!



Like any guy, Keegan decided he couldn't be driven around by a girl all day, so he got behind the wheel



What began as innocently washing sidewalk chalk off of hands.........


.....quickly turned into an all out water war!!



No one was safe. The kids were soaked by the time we made them stop spraying each other so we could eat lunch, but they had a blast - literally!! :)



Uncle Jeremy was attacked by Keegan and Fiona - it's a good thing the girls in our family aren't too dainty, yet! :)



Jody got us all tickets to a magic show at the library - he was very funny and entertaining - he even brought a real white rabbit!



The magician kept the kids' attention very well and they seemed to really enjoy it


While Fiona checked out some books with her mom, Scarlett decided to do a little reading on her own - she and her older cousin sure have that in common!



I tried my best to get all 3 kids in the picture reading at the same time, but that, of course, did not work out - when will I learn?


Keegan wanted to take the golf cart for a spin while we waited on Aunt Jody to drop Fiona off at the pool - Mommy thought it might not be the best idea - Scarlett, who is strapped in her carseat in the back was grateful for my decision!

Crew chief Keegan was apparently not happy with his crew

But, they shaped up long enough to fix the car that had crashed

Getting ready for another golf cart adventure

How adorable is she?!


The "Amazing Keegan" was having some difficulty with one of his stunts...

"Fiona the Incredible" gave him some pointers...

and he was able to complete his stunt finally!

I could not resist posting this pic - I have absolutely no idea what was so funny or why in the world Scarlett wanted to be in the bathroom while Keegan was going potty, but they were laughing hysterically about something - it was cracking us up to watch them!

Silly Faces


Reading a bedtime story with Aunty Jody and "Nona" - that's what Keegan calls Fiona - Fiona got a little too much sun swimming that day. We had a super trip and were so grateful we had the chance to spend a few days with some of our very favorite people. Thanks again, Shaw family, for welcoming us into your home!!

These are great pictures! I loved looking at them, since Jody doesn't blog herself (yet...I keep hinting that it's something she should do!)

This is Jill (Eichorst) Foley, by the way :)

I keep trying to talk her into her own blog, too - maybe we can convince her still!! Thanks for checking us out - it's nice to know people actually look at it! :)
