What used to be the lake at Trace State Park

     Will and I took our boat, "Guilt Trip", out for the first time all summer.  At one point, we thought we might sell it, because we don't ever take it out.  Then, Will attended Eric's dad's funeral and everyone that spoke about Mr. Jimmy mentioned all the family time spent together at the lake.  Will came home and told me, "We are not selling the boat."  We took Guilt Trip out to Trace State Park for a quick outing today, only to find out that the lake had been drained 3 years ago!  We didn't want to let a dried-up lake discourage us, so we decided to drive to Fulton, MS, and put in on the Tombigbee Waterway.  This was Hannah's first boat ride, if I am remembering correctly.  We all had a fun day on the lake.  Will and I think we are going to rename Guilt Trip.  Double Play is a contender, since we are a baseball family, and our boat is getting a second go at being a part of our family's playtime.

Hannah’s First Day of 3 Year-Old Preschool

Hannah’s First Ballet Class

 

Mimi and I took Hannah to her first ballet class today.  Hannah has been looking forward to taking ballet all summer long.  I was nervous about her crying on the first day, but this girl walked in very confidently and said, "I'm here!"  She was very chatty with her teacher, Mrs. Mary Morgan, who encouraged Hannah to let others have a chance to talk.  After class, Hannah showed Mimi and me what she learned in class.

     Mommy, Daddy, and Hannah took James to breakfast at Crave on his first day of kindergarten.  This boy was so excited to be starting kindergarten!  Mommy taught him to read over the summer, so he was all set to learn the many things that kindergarten brings.  James is a smart boy, and we are so proud of him!
