North Myrtle Beach, Sam Swimming

We took Sam down to the pool area.  Jamie and Sam went into the lazy river, Sam was in his swimy raft and loved it.  We also put Sam in a baby pool that was 1 foot deep and had a big overhead water fountain.  Sam kept trying to get under the water, he is daring and was not afraid.  Sam didn't want to get out of the pools, but we had to get him out since his lips were turning blue and he was shivering.

Swingin' Sam

Sam is 6 months old!!

Sam is definitely getting bigger and boy is it getting harder to take his "Month" pictures-he is always wanting to play with the blocks.

Labor day weekend

Labor day weekend was a beautiful weekend, we had cool weather (lower 80's), sunny and a nice breeze.  This weather got me in the mood for fall, pretty soon we will be raking and playing in the leaves, and getting ready for Sam's first Halloween (Jamie's favorite holiday).
We spend some time downtown Simpsonville on Sunday, went to the Touch-a-Truck event and walked around.  Monday we had family over and I smoked 3 chickens in the smoker, Jamie made her famous potato salad and a fudge brownie dessert, it was a great weekend.
