Father's Day Weekend

There are so many things to love about Georgia. One of them being all the parks they have, EVERYWHERE. Azure loved swinging at one of the many parks we've visited this past week.
And also chasing birds with mommy
Saturday we went to a puppet fair put on by Jim Henson's daughter! We bought a long wanted puppet stage :) And can't wait until our first home puppet show with Azure.

We love the Spanish moss hanging from all the trees.

Last weekend was free admission to all state parks so we took advantage by going to two forts. The first one was Ft. Morris. This was a fort during the American Revolution so the women there were wearing Colonial attire.

Then we headed over to Ft. McAllister. This is a Civil War fort on the bank of the Ogeechee River.
There are also TONS of squirrels here and since our "backyard" is wooded we can see lots jumping from branch to branch from our living room. Azure squeals and waves her arms fanatically whenever she sees them. We'll have to get some pics soon but, they are quick little critters!

is that a palm tree in the last picture? I couldn't see it in a bigger frame. Well, I'm sure down South they have palm trees too!

Yep, totally a palm tree. Another reason to love the south. I know at least Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina have palm trees; maybe some others too?
