Yellow River Game Ranch – Kid Camera Style

We had an amazing spring break!  We went to the Yellow River Game Ranch with some friends one day, Strawberry Picking another day and went to the beach to visit Aunt Tay Tay!

The day we went to the Yellow River Game Ranch, I was running around trying to get everything packed up for the trip.  I grabbed mine and Finn’s cameras and set them on the bed next to our bags.  Next thing I know, we arrive at the ranch and Finn jumps out of the car with his camera when I realize, I didn’t grab mine.  Finn was so cute when I was bummed and said “Don’t worry momma, I’ll show you my pictures!”  gah, so cute!  But I knew his camera didn’t take very good pictures.  But then….when we got home and I downloaded them, much to my surprise there are a bunch of really great pictures!!!  Riley also had a turn playing photographer!

I took this one at Finn’s request

I can’t help but picture Riley, a little older, trying to look up girls dresses.  I think we are in trouble.

And after all the FUN we went to CFA to grab some lunch and look who was standing outside!  “CFA Cow by mommalakes”

Braves Open House 2012

The Atlanta Braves held their Open House event again this year and we were super excited to go!  Finn remembered running the bases two years ago and couldn’t wait to do it again.  Unfortunately, there had been a lot of rain the day/night before and they cancelled the base running portion of the day.  :(  but we still had a great time!

We got there a little early and had a little picnic lunch!

The boys checking out the statue….mouth, ears, face…..

And then we waited in line to let the bigs hit a few balls!  Riley made contact!

Kellen says “can we go now?”

And Finn’s turn at bat!

Presents!

I forgot to add these pictures to the weekend and birthday posts, but they are so funny that I have to include them!

The boys were DYING to open Kellen’s birthday presents from the time people started arriving with presents.  But the weekend was so hectic we kept forgetting to open them.  We eventually did though….

 

The family all had the foamy fingers ready to cheer with each present opened!  hahahahaha  I love these people!

But the best presents???  these!
