Visit to Georgia!

Charlie and I made a visit to Georgia for about a week and a half.  We had a fun visit but, it was busy.  It sounded like I would have A LOT of time visiting but, it rushed by.  We did take Charlie to Bryant's Park to play in the creek, which he had never been in a creek before.  I used to go there as a child and it has been almost 20 years since I've been!! I didn't take any pictures while we were there (I know: 'Bad') but, Charlie did enjoy sitting on the rocks in the middle of the creek and letting the water rush pass him.
He also enjoyed playing with Cate.  They played in the pool at Gran and Gramps house.  He thought she was really funny!

Gramps taught Charlie how to swat flies, which he thinks is just hilarious! He was also introduced to Gramps' lemonade and got to drink it out of a 'big boy glass'.  (Charlie drank enough sugary drinks to keep him energized for the next few months.....so, we're back to water and milk!)

Later in the week, we went to Lake Oconee with Granddad and Nana J.  Charlie enjoyed going for rides on the boat.  He liked getting into the water but, after a little while he was ready to get into the boat and play.  He probably knows that boat as well if not better than Granddad. :)  He was never really interested in playing on the beach area, when we put him down there he just wanted to run around and have someone chase him.  Imagine that!

He definitely loved to have snacks on the boat!  But, I really don't know anytime that he's not ready for a snack! :)

and of course, he wanted to drink straight out of the bottle!

Troy and Kode came on Friday, Keri came Saturday night, and Gabe, Amanda, and Cate came on Sunday!  We had a house full but it was fun!  On the 4th of July, we went out to watch the fireworks by boat.  I didn't know how Charlie would react but, he seemed to enjoy them.  The noise didn't bother him and he sat and watched in amazement! (of course, he didn't watch without moving about some)

In his 4th of July outfit!

This is my favorite picture.... of course, he wouldn't sit still and I just happened to capture it at the right moment!! :)
