July!

We've been on-the-go this summer!  Here's some pics from the past month that haven't already been posted.  On Taylor's actual birthday, we took her to New Hampshire to Storyland.  We stayed in North Conway for the weekend and had the BEST time.  For my Southern friends, this is similar to a Gatlingburg area with lots of shopping, restaurants, etc, and is a ski resort in the winter.  I had no idea that New Hampshire was so beautiful... lakes and mountains everywhere!  So Storyland is a theme park devoted to younger kids and everything centers around classic stories.  We spent 2 days there and still didn't see everything.  We will definitely go back next year. 
Teacups!  

Meeting Cinderella!

Outside Cinderella's castle...
Taylor is fearless when it comes to most things, so I guess it shouldn't have surprised me that she loved the roller coasters!  Now Will on the other hand... not so much. 
This was more Will's style...
And of course, he loved driving a car. 
Meeting Max from Max and Ruby...
Riding the Choo Choo Train...
Birthday dinner

We stayed in a Hampton Inn that randomly had a mini water park inside.  It was perfect for our last rainy morning.
Here we are at Shelburne Farms... every time we go, the kids love it more and more.  This time, we took Mimi and Grandaddy.  Taylor just finished a camp there, and was obsessed with it.
It took me forever to finally catch this silly chicken.
"Playing Cars."  That's pretty much all Will wants to do these days.  "I play cars."
And of course he loves trucks too...
Swimming in Aunt Brooke's new pool...
Lobster Night!
We have had so much fun gardening this summer... the kids love to go out on their own and pick what they can find.  It's always surprising what Will brings back, but he's learning!  :)
