First, First...First, Last

For Annie it is the first day of her first year in middle school. It is Tristan's first day of his last year in middle school. Next year is high school for him. *sigh*

IMG_1552 One picture was OK for them but the second one, just not cool. What is that? Tongues? Get off my porch you punks!!! Good luck with that bus driver this year.

IMG_1555 I am not sure if this one is crying because he'll miss Bo-Bo and Nay-Nay or if he thinks that Mommy is going to have him do the extra chores while they are at school!!! Who is going to take care of this kid???

Sweet Southern Treats

This morning I got to snap a few pictures at a new local bakery the Laughing Elephant. It is the creation of a family from Annie's cheer team. They bake up some killer cakes, cupcakes, cheesecakes and don't get me started on the eclairs!!!

Here are a few of their kiddos and yummies. If ya'll ever get to Cumming make sure to drop in and get a fix for your sweet tooth.





Big Hats and a Gorilla

Friday afternoon after tie-dye pedicures the girls (Annalise and Maddie) and I set out for some more fun and tons pictures. I asked Maddie if she was game. Her eyes lit up and said "oooooh...this is going to be sooooo fun!" I took about 200 pictures!!! And fun is what we had. Too bad we ran out of light!

First we headed to Cumming square and found a neat alley and parking structure. Nothing but goofing, jumping and the attempted stunt with an orange construction cone...."eeewwww, what is under it!"

We then packed it up and headed up the 400 to Cherokee Music. How could anyone pass up all the fun statues they have in front? The Pink Panther, a bull, rooster, the Easter Bunny, the gorilla and a few other characters...
