The Rest of Our Trip

After visiting family and friends in Atlanta, we spent the rest of our vacation in Helen, GA. Our first stop was at BabyLand General.

Laurie's Wedding

We spent the first part of our vacation in Tampa, FL for the wedding of a college friend. I was a bridesmaid

and Charlotte was the flower girl.

The wedding was fabulous- Laurie was beautiful, the rain held off while we were outside, everything went off without a hitch. The kids had a blast dancing at both the rehearsal dinner

and the reception.

We also got a glimpse of the future during the reception. An older boy asked Michael if he could dance with Charlotte. Here are the two of them tearing up the dance floor.

The reception and hotel were right on the water, providing some gorgeous views.

Vacation Knitting

All of the driving during our trip gave me plenty of time to knit. Here's what I've accomplished in the last two weeks:

2 large and 5 small Critter Knitter blankets
Rebekah is taking donations through the 15th of this month, so I promise I'll have something other than blankets to post about in the coming weeks. 34 FOs to go before Labor Day.
