Every summer we make the trip to Georgia to see Karen's parents. The kids really look
forward to it and really enjoy it. They have a lot of land and pets and fun things
to do around North Georgia. We have a great time and make great memories
with Grandpa and Grandma and spending time together as a family!
We started out the week going to the dinosaur museum. They have so many fun
exhibits and the kids love it. This day they had reptiles to touch! So fun!
They also have a huge outdoor section
Next we went to this place you can slide on the rocks and tube down. So much fun.
The boys also wanted to seine with Grandpa. Claire got so excited to touch a fish!
She's always right there ready to get dirty and is not scared of anything!
Another day we went to the lake and did canoeing and swimming. We weren't sure how
Claire would like the canoe, but it turns out she wanted to ride all day! Hilarious!
It's also fun just to hang at the house. We shot BB guns, did archery, played with their
new puppies, went in the tree house, ran around in the forest, helped in the garden, and
caught toads. It's a little kids dream place! It's like the best summer camp ever!
One day we toured a local gold mine cave. We've never been and it was so interesting.
At the end everyone gets to pan for gold, and it was fun! The boys now want to
be gold miners when they grow up. :)
We also mined for gems and Claire had the best time scooping sand into a bucket.
Gotta love toddlers, they are so happy with the simplest things!!
We had such a fun time. We love this tradition.
Thanks Grandpa and Grandma for having us!
