We went to Calloway Garden's beach on Friday with the Cannon's. We had a wonderful time. THANKS again for letting us go with you all!! Here are a few photos from yesterday:
So, not long after getting there, I dropped my camera in the sand. :( The camera looks fine but not the lens. I am sending it to Nikon this week to have it looked at to see if it can be repaired. If it can, yeah!! If not, I will save for another one. Note to self: always keep the camera around your neck with the "neck" strap!!! I knew that the sand was a dangerous place for the camera. Lesson learned.
We returned, B had a shower and I took him to his friend Camden's house. He was going to attempt to spend the night. He made it to 10:30 pm and Mrs. Amy brought him home. I have made my kids this way not having them stay anywhere overnight. The only other time we attempted this, I had to pick him up in the wee hours of the morning. I think he will grow out of this, right?
This morning B and I went to the Randle Farm http://www.randlefarms.com/. The Randles are such a wonderful family. We met them through church at Auburn First Baptist. Today B and I picked new or red potatoes with Mr. Frank. We picked a few white potatoes and then a few onions. They have a community co-op that I hope we can join in the fall. This family grows everything that they eat - vegetables & meat. Mrs. Pat makes their bread. I am just fascinated by what they do. B wants to go out there again and do more things on the farm. He witnessed Omar and friends (from the Sudan) butchering sheep. A first for me too. There were some sheep on the trailer ready for sale, and we went into the rabbit house where they keep very large rabbits - remember they grow all of their food! We will go back in a few weeks for blueberries. It is just a neat experience.
The rest of today we are resting. We have had such a full & busy week this week. Tomorrow we will go to a friends swimming birthday party. Then on Monday, the new summer work schedule will start for me. For the next two weeks, B will be staying at a friends house.

Look at E's cute pigtails! She is too cute!
Sounds like fun! John David got to watch the sheep get sheared at Mr. George's farm. I bet B loved it!
I think I know your friends the Cannon's. Is her name Anitra? If so I worked with her at Parkway Preschool last year. She is a sweet lady.
Hey Penny! Yes, that is the same one! We met them when we lived in Marion and then they moved here not too long after we did when we moved back to Auburn. Small world. Are you still at Parkway? She is still there.
