Goodbye July.

We said goodbye to the month of July with a visit from The Super Carrot. She arrived on a Sunday. After her family dropped her off we had some fun. We dropped by the goat farm where the goats enthusiastically vied for the bread she offered. They butted heads and licked her fingers. We love doing that. The we came home and played ball with Granddaddy outside for a good while. She suggested we make a list of all our activities for the following day.
So we did. After her bath we watched the movie "Trolls" and she almost made it to the end. I could tell she was sleepy and she readily agreed it was bed time. 

Monday we just followed the list. 

First stop was delightful. There were butterflies aplenty at the garden. Swallowtails and monarchs. We had a good stroll on the Riverwalk, too.

The we spent a gift card at the Krispy Kreme. She had the cookie dough donut with sprinkles. I had the New York cheesecake donut. We shared a chocolate milk. 

Filled with sugar we headed to the park by the hospital. She really knows how to strike the pose. #missalabama #missamerica

The temperature was moderate. In the shade felt pretty good. But when it got close to noon and the sun was over head it was time to move on... 

...to McDonald's. The pose was totally her idea. 

She played at the indoor playground and then we headed home. We rested for a short while then headed to the YMCA pool. We didn't stay too long because it was very sunny. We had plenty sun screen but I don't like to chance the sun burn. 

It went too quickly and her mom was ready early so I drove her to the half way point where we usually meet. 

Tomorrow she starts kindergarten. She has a loose tooth. 
Her brother and sister will both be in middle school. 
Her cousin, Peyton, started first grade on Friday. 

I will post later about this last weekend and the new month. 
Shalom.
