Where in the World...

Click now for JiffNotes

...have I been?? You know, I was wondering why I haven't been blogging, then I started writing this summary and realized how busy my weekends have been, and I remembered why! Of course, that's no excuse for this month, except that maybe I have needed a few weekends of doing nothing to recover. When I looked at all the pictures I'd taken in May, June and July, I felt a little faint, so I told myself I'd do the "pick just one picture" thing again. Maybe if there's some interest, I'll share some more. ;)

So here's what I've been up to...

May

  • Took Michael's parents on a Mother's Day tour of gardens, followed by Comedy of Errors at the Shakespeare Tavern
  • Had a nice Mother's Day lunch with my family
  • Took my niece to see the Atlanta Ballet and the Gardens

June

  • Went to Savannah and Amelia Island for our anniversary
  • Breakfast on our verandah!
  • Took Michael's parents to the brand new Delta Flight Museum for Father's Day, followed by my first ever golfing attempt (emphasis on "attempt")
  • You can't make these people stop for a picture...
  • Celebrated Father's Day with my family
  • Spent a whirlwind three days at a family wedding event...seeing relatives from all over the country, visiting the World of Coke, the Aquarium, attending a fiesta...and fortunately I was spared the golfing!

July

  • Hosted my family for Independence Day, including hot dogs, fireworks and plenty of food!
  • Yummy salad my sister made...and so festive. ;)

I'll try to be a little better about posting!

Sounds like you have been a real busy bee. It looks like you have been having fun though xx

Can't believe you were as close as Amelia and didn't pop down and visit - boo!!!!! Glad you had fun for your anniversary trip - nothing like Savannah ( I go there often on business) and the Golden Isles for a gentle respite.
hope you've had time for some happy stitches. Enjoy your weekend Mel

Just noticed your last name is Lott... I am also a Lott, by marriage! If you have any relatives in Texas, we may be kinda sorta distantly related!

A busy and happy three months! No wonder you've not had time to blog much as of late!

Fun times you've been having, lovely to be able to see what you've been doing.

I always enjoy your photos! Lovely mountain laurel, we have one of those we planted in our yard. Love the frog!! Hope you had a nice anniversary.

Busy, busy, busy. I must say, your family know how to co-ordinate their clothing :-) Very smart!
