Father's Day Weekend

Well, it's Wednesday and I am just now getting around to re-capping our Father's Day weekend!  Better late than never, huh?


We had a great weekend at home for once!  On Saturday, we went to the little Farmer's Market in our town. Got some fresh veggies, fresh shrimp, boiled peanuts, and hot dogs. That's a good round-up, right? After that, it was off to Babies 'R' Us to stock up on baby-proofing supplies. Now that we have a little crawler, it won't be long before she figures out how to open cabinets. Best to be proactive!



On Saturday night, our friends, the Pennys, came over for dinner. I'm not sure if I mentioned it or not, but my friend Holly recently had a baby boy. Walker and Charlotte are exactly 6 months to the day apart in age. It is going to be so much fun raising them together! Charlotte decided she wanted to hold Walker's hand...so sweet!



Until, she went in for the kiss. Ahem, Daddy was NOT happy about this one. No kissing boys, Charlotte Ruth!


On Sunday we went to early church and then out on the lake. Charlotte went swimming for the first time in her new float, and she LOVED it!


My parents came for dinner and WEG cooked shrimp and grits (yum!) and we went out on the boat to see the purple martins at sunset.  Lake Murray has the largest migration of purple martins in the world, and between June and September, they come in to roost on one of the islands on the lake. Right at sunset, they all descend on this island. It is quite the show!


Such a great weekend as we celebrated WEG's very first Father's Day! He has been the very best daddy I could have ever asked for to Charlotte. The adoration is mutual between those two. It warms my heart that she has a daddy that she will love and adore as much as I love and adore my own.
