The Carlton Family Reunion

These pictures were taken at the annual Carlton Family Reunion in Perry Florida! Mom and Dad took Wil over for us-he represented us well! I missed seeing everyone, but Dad got some awesome pictures for me! Grandpa rode back to the house in the back seat with Wil and enjoyed Wil's facial expressions! At Grandpas, Wil and Wyatt got a chance to romp on the floor with each other. They are noticing each other more and more everytime they get together. Both are sitting up and its hard to tell who drools more! Thanks Mom and Dad for taking Wil to meet the family!

The Hawaii game

Whew! We had so much going on this past weekend! Mom and Dad came down for the Carlton family reunion and offered to take Wil to the reunion in Perry while we took Wes, Kasey, Zac and Gracie to their first Gator game! Thanks Ms. Madge! We ran into a rainstorm right at pregame which eventually cleared up into a hot and humid game! The Gators won the game and we all met back up at the house for lasagna and birthday cake for Tony! Mom and Dad made it in from Perry and said Wil was on his best behavior. We rewarded him with a few scuppernog grapes in his mesh bag chewy toy in the high chair. It was fun to watch him eat while we ate! Sunday morning we went to Devil Milhopper State Park and climbed up and down the stairs on the boardwalk into the massive sinkhole. It was a pretty place-feels like you are in the mountains-and the mosquitos loved having us! Sunday night after Wes left we watched a movie with Mom and Dad and had a surprise visit from Adyson, Jessie and Sarah. Mom and Dad left on Labor Day and Wil and I had the day to ourselves!

Turtle Power!

Jason found a friend for Wil! We let him play with the box turtle for a while and then we set him free in the backyard. Don't worry, Becky, Wil didn't try to kiss the turtle!

A trip to Gary and Ji's house

After Faye passed us by, we set out for Gary and Ji's house Saturday. They have moved into a nice house with a pool and of course-Gary's sailboat outside! We didn't go sailing this time. We ate steak, swam and rearrange the furniture! Gary and Ji cooked waffles and eggs the next morning and then we had to leave! Wil's ready to get into the pool again! He loved kicking and splashing with Dad!

Tropical Storm Faye

Tropical Storm Faye has came and went. Earlier in the week we were graced with a surprise visit from Stanton, Anita and Buzz. They stayed overnight and beat the storm back up to WVA the next morning. Fran was pretty harmless here with the exception of a lot of rain and a mess to clean up in the yard. We adjusted our travel (to Tampa) plans and stayed home Friday. We ate, watched the trees blow around and played in puddles. We played dress up and found out that Wil's Gator hat fits now! Here are a few pictures of us around the house!
