Cousins Camp

Yesterday morning Ramsey, Me, Sage and Bentley took off early for a full day in Bowdon with Cope's parents and the Pate family (second cousins). We arrived at the library in carrollton about 10:00am for truck day. Needless to say Ramsey was super stoked to see all the "big trucks". Here he is with Grampy next to the mixer:
Here is one of Miss Mattie. Caroline (youngest sister) had a doctors appt. so wasn't there:

After the trucks we all went inside to the children's section of the library. Paula read stories to some of the kiddies. (Top to bottom: Mattie, Ramsey, Davin, Parker) Notice Mr. Ramsey is the only one refusing to sit down???


Much better:
After the library we all went back to Paula's. In total there were 8 kids (Ramsey, Mattie, Caroline, Tindol, Wilson, Sumlin, Parker, Davin, plus baby boy Pate coming this fall). Here is Ramsey dancing and playing the key board in the closet.
After nap time we headed to Cope's parents house for some outdoor fun. I got in a good nap, which was heaven. Ramsey played like a crazy man. Here is testing out his latest find:
Stopping for 1/2 a second to pose for Mommy:
After dinner we had cake and celebrated July Birthdays: Judy (July 1st), Me (July 5th), and Caroline(July 9th). Of course we sang Happy Birthday which Ramsey loves and always thinks everyone is singing to him.
All in All is was a great day. We were all exhausted by the time we arrived home last night. It was great to see the Pate family and there 5 plus 1 on the way kiddos. We haven't seen them in years so it was a treat. It was also fun to just hang out and relax at Cope's parents. Ramsey had a blast! Today (Friday) we are having some of our Army friends from Ft. Drum, NY come in for the weekend. We're very excited and are expecting a fun weekend ahead.
