Fun in the South!

We spent several days after our trip to the beach with Meme and Papa Charles at their house!  It was a nice place to relax and have a little fun.  We had some fun adventures and fantastic visits while we were there!

Meme, the girls, and I went to pick blueberries one day.  This is something I always have wanted to take Lyla to do!  She loves blueberries!  It was a great learning experience for her...we talked about how blueberries are grown and how they get to the grocery store.  After a HOT time picking not even a bucket full of berries, Lyla decided it was much easier to just go buy them at the grocery store!  :)



Lola loved picking them too!  She wanted to eat them instead of putting them in the bucket!




Lily loved being the "bucket girl"!





"Mom, take us to the CAR!  We are HOT!!"



After cooling off, we went to visit Joan (my grandmother) and Tom!  They were so excited to see us.  I am so thankful for such special memories with them and am glad the girls are getting to know them!


We had MUCH playtime while we were at Meme and Papa Charles' house!
The girls love playing with my old baby dolls!  The line them up EVERYWHERE!

They played with Papa Charles and Uncle Mills ALOT!


They went fishing with Daddy!  I did not go with them so I took some pics before they left.  
They each caught 4 fish with their "princess" poles!


The BIGGEST milestone for Lyla happened while we were at Meme's!  Lyla began playing with their DOG!  If anyone knows Lyla, she has been terrified of DOGS since she turned 2.  Miraculously she decided she wasn't scared anymore.  We are so proud of her for being so brave!



Lily is still not sure of them and will run by...

Lola on the other hand LOVES dogs too!  She wants to get down with them and touch them (pull their hair) and acts like she is barking.  Too cute!


 Look at her face...she is so excited!!!

We also played in the yard.  Lily found the scarves and turned them into dress up clothes.  :)


Packing up to leave...

We had a great time and were sad to leave.  As always good things must end, but we will go again very soon!  We love you, Meme and Papa Charles!

IT TAKES A LOT OF STUFF TO TRAVEL WITH 3 GIRLS!!!

Our next stop...Grandmother and Aub's house!
