Memorial Day 2006

My brother & his family came for a visit over the long weekend. I tried to get some pictures of the girls together to see if Emma still looks like Sophie. I don't think she looks as much like her as she used to (maybe it's the curls); although she does still have some "Sophie faces." We didn't have much time to spend with them so we had to take advantage of whatever photo ops we could get.



On Saturday, we decided to take a picnic lunch to Stone Mountain and then we went on a ride there called Ride the Ducks. This is pretty much how Emma looked throughout the ride. Daniel liked it alright except that the Captain had the sound turned up pretty loud and he doesn't like loud noises at all. Once out in the water, Hayden & Sophie both took a turn steering the boat but neither Daniel nor Emma would budge from their seats.

I really don't like that your children are getting so big. It means that mine are big too. Where have my babies gone?

They don't look alike in that picture at all, but I would have said they were almost twins! I was actually really scared on the Duck ride at Stone Mountain. Amber, if you are reading, DON'T take Mason!!!!

mason would probably have a heart attack if i ever attempted the duck ride. we've got to conquer the fellowship hall stage before we can jump into the floating car.

i love that your blog has become reunion-ville for all of the old mountain parkers that i grew up with. by linking their blogs, you have enabled me to re-connect with some that i haven't seen in years. thanks!!

The girls still have some similarities, but not as much as mine. Emma just looks so exceited to be on the boat.

Emma is adorable!! I love the curls. Any kids who need help with overcoming fears can spend some time with mine--they have no healthy fear of ANYTHING!!! Atleast the girls for sure.
