New Skills

The  boys were with us for several days last week and we enjoyed spending concentrated time with them. Collier, who has been taking steps for several weeks, began to really take off in the walking department while he was with us. Hamilton is also enjoying a walking brother though he is not always kind. We thought it so cute when Hamilton took Collier's hand and walked him around the house. At least it starts out cute. Dale caught this on video.

Strolling Downtown Greenwood

The boys are staying with us this week and we needed a little diversion from the farm so I took them to downtown Greenwood to view the topiaries set up for the Festival of  Flowers which is this week.
Like previous years, the topiaries are works of art in flowers and plants that look like animals and other things. This year they have a jeep, an anniversary cake, and a camera among the lions, tiger and bear (oh my!). Hamilton, who loves to take walks anyway, enjoyed pushing Collier in the stroller to see each display. We combed the entire area from the playhouse theatre to the new library on one side and the Inn on the Square to Frilly Frog on the other. It's so fun to have an adventure so close to home.
