August Recap

We spent most of August visiting family and friends trying to soak up the last days of summer. Ella has proven to be a good traveler so far and has done her fair share of it in the past three months. The first weekend in August was spent at Lake Martin celebrating Jared Wingfield's 30th birthday with some of Josh's dearest friends from college. It was great getting to catch up, share stories, and cruise on the lake sipping our gourmet coffee. It was also Ella's first introduction to two of the Wingfield boys, Hank and Conrad Hudson, who are both sweet as pie!...for more on the weekend click here and here. On our way back from Lake Martin we made a stop by Auburn to eat at Mama G's and drive by some of Josh's favorite places. The second weekend we spent time at Lake Hartwell with the Bluster family. We had a great time and made some hilarious memories...most of which will never be blogged about . After our fun at the lake Mom, Ella, and I headed to St.Simons while Josh was on business in New York. My cousin just moved into an adorable cottage on the island so we went to visit and help her get settled...my new favorite place is Moo Cow Ice Cream. We ended August by celebrating my sweet Grandmother's birthday in Habersham with the whole Bluster family . It is amazing how fast times goes by when you have a little one...I felt like yesterday we were bringing her home...she is a little slice of heaven

Here are a few pics from August...

* Lastly, this Sunday (Sept. 4th) Josh is preaching while his father is away...we girls are so proud of him :)
