time flies when your having fun

We took new pictures of Sydney last night eating her first rice cereal meal and I realized I have not posted anything new in almost a month.

Well we have been super busy and having a blast with Sydney. For Labor Day weekend we drove to Lexington, Kentucky to meet Eric's parents. Lexington was a good half way point for both of us and we also were able to explore a new city. Lexington's downtown was very clean and they had revitalized all the old buildings. We had a great meal and had the best cornbread, which we got the recipe for. Also, Lexington we visited the Kentucky Horse Park, where they have over 40 breeds of horse. We watched a breeders show and got to meet the horses after. Sydney was not so sure about all of it, but she did touch her first horse.



We all had a great time at the park and enjoyed our time with each other. Sydney also went swimming for the first time (those are on Grandma's camera, we'll get them soon).

Then the next weekend my folks decided last minute they wanted some grandparent time, so they drove out Friday and spent the weekend. We had a blast with Scamper on Saturday at the Alabama War Dog Festival. Scamper was a huge hit with all the crowds and I think he was the only dog that didn't bark!

This weekend Kariann and Seth came to Birmingham for a high school friend's wedding and stayed with us. We went to the Greek Festival Saturday night and ate some yummy food. Sunday I took Kariann and Seth to Aldridge Gardens and took some engagement photos. Sydney also had her first taste of rice cereal and she did really well with it. She only spit at me a few times!



We have had a busy month and we have enjoyed spending so much time with our family, but we are exhausted! I have posted a bunch of photos on the photo album, check them out.

Love the Thealls!
