Max is now SIX!

What can we say. The years have gone by so quickly. We have been living the dream. Well, don't forget it is a story. Who would want to put in all the hard parts. The important part is Max is thriving and growing up to be a sweet, funny, loving, talkative, smart and a great traveler. Max loves to be on the go and going places. Of course he talks all the way there and back and after awhile we are ready to lose our minds but then he says something funny or tells us how much he loves us and it makes all those crazy insane moments so worthwhile.

Max is in Kindergarten now. He is ahead of the curve for his reading and writing. If we could just channel his enthusiam and calling out! He is still not the worlds best eater and we are always trying to find things for him to eat and getting him to stop talking long enough to eat is the key.

I am sure this will work its way out someday!

Max's plate, my car

I came across a this photo and thought it was cute.
Though it is from last summer 07 a year ago. I think I will take another one to see the difference in his height. Stay tuned.

Way way out there......

come back!! oh, check out the chair on the bottom right side, that is Michelles resting spot. She read and tanned while I slaved away cooking hamburgers and hotdogs on the cheap little travel grill in the rocks. Let her tell you about the ant story....no picnic with out ants. In her new fossil purse no doubt....yuck....more than three is a crowd, more than one hundred is disgusting.

Nana and Apop came to join us

Apop wanted to check out the boat.

More fun lazy days.

This was at Lake Allatoona by our house in GA.
A lazy sunday afternoon picnic...

Happy 30 to Michelle!!!!

While Michelle and I are going to Paris for her 30th birthday present, we still had a little cake on the big day!!
