Old Solider's Reunion
What is old solider's week without icey's and homemade lemonade!!!!!
However, this year, the old timey fire engine took the cake for a certain little boy.
Ali was in town on parade day and as soon as I find my camera I will upload the pictures of the gang at the parade. This year the Wade's and the Martin's sat with us (us= mom, Al, Hokie and the three and a half Donleys)

Finger Paint
Chatham is SO excited that his Godmother Ali is coming to visit!! We decided to do some finger painting for her.
We covered the kitchen table and get down to business.
Chatham made a soccer field (pictured below, in case you couldn't tell)

Mommy's picture was a big less abstract and we made hand and foot prints!
Another trip to Nevin Park
We have definitely enjoyed the splash park a lot this summer.
We went back again the first weekend of August with the Cadwallader's, I am REALLY going to miss having my Friday's off and getting to spend so much time with our friends!!
The kiddos definitely enjoyed running through the water more this year- and I hope we can go back next year and watch them change!
Chatham took a quick break to show Aunt Suzy some love!

We have learned that a BIG ball and a hammer are just as good as a baseball and bat.
We had a GREAT day in Statesville having frozen yogurt and painting ceramics with Cora and Mrs. Betsy (who Chatham affectionately calls Ms. Speckle)
The boys had a fun day at home (and chic-fila) while I had a girls night out for Karrie's Bachelorette Party- the wedding was last night and unfortunately I didn't take ONE PICTURE!
With all the purchases being made for Harper- we didn't want Chatham to feel left out, so Gram brought over a big treat! Devin and Chatham spent an evening putting together the new table and chairs set for the play room!
