Brooklyn Fair Friday!
What a blast to go to the local fair Dave went to as a kid. We went on ride bracelet day, and it was HOT. We saw some tractor pulls, pig races and go cart races (which were really supped up riding lawn mowers that went REAL fast. )

Grampie Visit
Friday to Saturday we go a visit to Grampie's in!
The trampoline is always FUN! We even went to a local swimming hole - Four Corners! The boys all jumped off a 10 foot cliff into the water. Crazy FUN!
Road Trip!!
What a wonderful Road Trip! Long but GOOD!
We left Thursday morning and arrived at the Garrisons about 5:00pm. We hung out with them, got some burgers for dinner, then came back to their house for a walk to their playground for some four square. That evening they introduced us to mini golf on the XBox, what a blast.
Friday morning we left for MaTaunte Andrea's. It was going to be an 8 1/2 hr trip. That was a long day - but we did it. We had a Taco night! YUM.
Saturday MaTaunte Andrea had Nathanael go pick the watermelon and cut it. WOW a yellow one! With seeds we spit off the back porch.
We went to Carowinds roller coaster park. What a blast. On the boarder of North and South Carolina - where the Carolina's meet!
Sunday we went to a local state park - the rain potential was still very much in the air. We took a short hike, we swum, we rented kayaks and paddleboats. Fun. We went home and enjoyed Andrea's garden, played some games. That evening was a good movie night to relax by.
Monday morning we left for DC. We arrived at the hotel, and walked towards where the DC Monument Bike tour would take off, had some dinner. There were flood weather warnings and a little thunder, but we were able to do our trip with a little rain at the beginning, but it was GREAT.
We saw a bunch of monuments, our tour guide described each site wonderfully then we could go explore it. What a treat.
Tuesday morning we decided to go to the Smithsonian Zoo. Jeremiah wanted to see the Panda's, there is a baby there - who turned one this Saturday. We drove home after that. What a wonderful trip.
