Summer 2007

I thought I would begin our blog by sharing some of our best moments from the summer! I hope you enjoy seeing our pictures and reading our stories.

Atlanta, Georgia!

There's no denying that we love going home. We were blessed enough for Davin to be out of school and off work for an entire week. We split up our time between grandparents and made so many fun memories. Here are a few...

Hudson's first boat ride!

Here is Hudson and his Mimi. This is Hudson's first real boat ride!

The Georgia Aquarium

What a treat to be able to go to the Georgia Aquarium two summers in a row.

Thank you Pop-pop and Mimi!

We had a wonderful time and I added some pictures of us last year, while I was pregnant with Naomi and this year with Naomi.

I promise Naomi is with us! If you look close you can see the top of her head in the stroller. Sorry Naomi!

Hudson drives at last!

Here we are at Gran's house.

Hudson takes his first spin in his power wheels jeep.

Here is Hudson and his cousin Lila. They aren't too sure about this power wheel thing, but thankfully their Dad's are on the scene!

Finally Kaitlyn, one of Hudson's other cousins, arrives and saves the day.

Father's Day

Here is Dad enjoying his home-made German Chocolate Cheesecake, before he opens his present!

Hudson and Naomi celebrating father's day!

Sticker Charts, Ice Cream Trucks, and a Ukulele

Here are some fun moments!

Here is Hudson proudly displaying his sticker chart. He has been potty training and worked all week to fill up his chart and earn a Dora the Explorer Van.

Hudson also had his first experience with the Ice Cream Truck. Thanks Gran and Grandaddy for this fun treat!


In case you want to know Hudson chose the hulk with gumball eyes! (yes, we removed the gumball eyes before he at his ice cream)





This is a fun shot of Naomi! She got a hold of Hudson's Ukulele.

Naomi's Baby Dedication

On Mother's Day we dedicated Naomi to the Lord. Our prayer for her is that she would love the Lord our God with all her heart, soul, mind, and strength. And that her life would be filled with the fruit of the spirit.

Here is one of the better "family" pictures we took at the Seminary after church that day. Notice how well Hudson is cooperating. (to his credit it was lunch time:)

North Carolina Zoo

North Carolina's Zoo is located in Asheboro and is one of the largest Zoo's in the Nation! It is a 5 mile walk, and if I had a guess I would say that Hudson walked about 3 miles that day.

This is my favorite picture from the whole trip! Hudson was so tired he slept through dinner.

Pullen Park

Pullen Park is in the heart of Raleigh. There are several play areas, boatrides, a train, and a carousel. We had a blast that day. Thanks Mimi and Pop-pop!

Here is Hudson on the kiddie boats.

Look close! There's Dad and Hudson in the window of a real caboose!

Here we are on the train!
