When did he grow up?
It was in this picture, that I realized out little Ben was not so little any more. He is 3 1/2 now and he looks so much older.

Treasures of the Trip
THE ORCHARDS Along the drive from Alabama to Georgia, we discovered this adorable little shop. THE ORCHARDS has tooth hurting sweet pralines and candy. They also have the cutest little gifts to buy. I found a vintage looking apron that I love. They had the candles from Oprah's Favroite Things list! Thank goodness my Mom needed a bathroom break! Or, we would have never found this shop! RODGER'S BAR-B-QUE I can not explain in words how delicious the food was from Rodger's Bar-B-Que. My Mom had sweet tea. And I had a bottle of coca cola in a glass bottle. We took the food on the road and enjoyed every bite. Bar-B-Que sandwiches, hush puppies, and fried green tomatoes is what got us from Georgia to Alabama one delicious bite at a time. While driving through the south and eating this food, I honestly felt like I was in one of my favorite movies, (FRIED GREEN TOMATOES). Some of my favorite memories of this trip was of course the driving that my Mom and I did. We saw cotton field...

We flew in to Atlanta, Georgia and first met up at the airport. We then drove to Alabama to visit my best friend Brenda who is stationed there for a few months with her family and the Army. Her hubby is finishing up his helicopter pilot schooling. After being spoiled by Brenda, the next morning we woke up and hit the road to meet up with my brother in South Carolina. On our way to South Carolina, driving through Georgia, we found a treasure of the trip. THE ORCHARDS is my new favorite place to buy presents for friends and myself! I found a vintage looking apron that I am in love with. We finally made it to Fort Jackson and found Daniel. We enjoyed a few hours with him and took him out to dinner. We were also able to see him in formation with his company that he went through basic with. After switching hotels once, we got some beauty slee...
