    WOW! Things have definately been going on in this family! Here, I'll attempt to start from the beginning.

    In July we took several trips and did several things with the kids. The first of which was the annual July 4th bash at my mom's house. We spent several days there with my brothers having a good time. Then, me and the kids wrote to Birmingham to spend a couple of days with Dixie and the kids while Jim went home.

    Anthony had a ball with Hanna and Will. They played a lot together. We also attended a July 4th celebration in Birmingham. There was a kid's carnival and spectacular fireworks. The kids got to have a good time at the pool also. I hated to leave :)

    The weekend after that we went to the Atlanta Zoo with my mom and my neices and nephew. Anthony of course loved it! He loves all the animals in the zoo. There is a photo album in the photos section. Check it out!

    The following weekend we went to Whitewater in Atlanta. Again, Anthony had a ball. I think Mackenzie really liked the water too. Jim and I got to ride several rides as well. We rented a cabana and it turned out to be a great buy. My mom, stepdad, and Gage joined us there. There is also a photo album in the photo section for this trip. What a blast!

    August started off with a bang as well. We spent August 2-6 at my parents' house and August 7-12 at Jim's parents'. Check out the fun pool and beach pics in the photo section.

    Somewhere in the middle of all of that, both the children have progressed so much! Anthony is speaking very well now. Almost anyone can pretty much understand him. He still has some jumbled words, but for the most part he's pretty clear. His favorite things to do are ride the tractor, four wheeler, and lawn mower with Paw Paw and ride the golf cart and go to the pool at Nana and Pop Pop's. He'll tell you all about them. Anthony is also beginning to potty train. It's hit or miss right now but he is definately beginning to poopy in the potty. Huge deal!

    Mackenzie is growing like a weed! She's sitting up on her own now and is probably about 2 days away from crawling. She's rolling around everywhere following me around. She's also very vocal now. No teeth yet, but it's only a matter of time. I think I felt a little ridge coming in on the bottom. She's not really eating solid food yet. She eats the occasional half a jar of food and anything else I give her off my plate though.

    It's official! We are moving to Pinehurst NC very soon. Jim has accepted a job there as superintendent of the Dormie Club. It's a new golf course that isn't built yet. Now sure the official move date, but it's very soon!

    Well, I think that's it for now. Hope you enjoy the new additions!

    Nana and Pop Pop Evans:  We so enjoyed having you guys visit us in Florida. The golf cart is always ready for Anthony whenever he can visit. We miss you already.
