July

We started July off with a trip to Isle of Palms, SC with our friends Josh and Jenny.  We had a great week at the beach, playing in the sand and doing lots of swimming!!  Hannah and Ethan both just loved Josh and Jenny and spending time with them!!!  Then a couple weeks later, we headed out to New Mexico for Matt's summer sales meeting at his company's headquarters.  It's amazing how different the scenery was from anywhere I had ever been!!!  The kids adjusted easily to the time change, and we had a great time!  It was wonderful to finally meet everyone that Matt works with, and to spend time in a new place.  Hannah had two pony rides and Ethan even got to sit on a pony for the first time!!!  His company does as "company wide picnic" every year, where they rent out a ranch and have activities for everyone.  This was probably the highlight of the trip.  The kids just played non stop and Ethan absolutely LOVES horses!!!  We also spent a little time in downtown Santa Fe which was very fun!  The end of the month was busy with Hannah's second round of swim lessons, a trip to Lake Lanier, and a visit from my mom and all 4 nieces for a couple days!  We loved it all, but were worn out after!!!!
