We have made it the 3,000 miles from Seattle to Georgia (driving, that is) and are enjoying the lovely Southern weather, swimming, and relaxing.
We had some 4th of July fireworks. Peter was giddy with excitement and Charlotte has mastered the "ooh" and "aah" chorus required at fireworks displays.
Peter's 2nd birthday was a "Thomas Choo-choo" theme, so we went up to the North Georgia mountains for a scenic railway journey. Peter and Charlotte both loved it. A real "choo-choo"!
some prime "attitude" from both of the little travelers. . .
. . . and three seconds later, so happy . . .

"choo-choo"!
The train stopped in a little town on the Georgia/Tennessee border and we explored the little shops.
Charlotte got to crack her own geode.
She doesn't mess around. She's a professional.
"train rides wear her out, y'all!"
Peter LOVED his cake, a Victoria Gerhardt original creation.
Peter also got some Thomas balloons, which were soooo exciting.
The cake was amazing, the singing/candles, well, a little less successful . . . catch video of it here.

"Did you have a happy birthday, Peter?"
"HAPPEEEY!"
