I Heart the Park

We love Triangle Park. I think it's a mother's best friend. When the natives get restless, it's the perfect solution.

This morning was beautiful - cool, but sunny - and perfect for the park. Emma and I headed over while Daddy worked in the garden...damn squirrels.

With my mom...

She loved the slide today!

Always happy swinging...

Stripes, stripes and stripes!

Ahh, autumn...

No major news here, folks -- notice a theme?

We are just enjoying the nice, breezy days of autumn.

Hanging with Mom...

Who me, attitude?

Happy girl!

A Day at the Dairy

We were very excited when our friends, the Barretts, asked us to join them on a trek to the dairy. As part of a local dairy co-op, they were responsible for the week's dairy pickup. Wright Farm Dairy, located just outside of Anniston, Alabama, is an organic dairy farm - where happy cows reside. Their milk is amazing, as well as their ice cream and butter (provided through an Amish community). It was great fun.

Emma LOVED the cows, really loved the cows. I think she kicked and squealed for about 20 straight minutes. Although, am I surprised? Of course not, Dugald did grow up on a dairy farm...

Sweet thing...
