Byrd Family Reunion

We went to Gatlinburg, TN for the Byrd family reunion this past week. There were 18 of us. We spent some time driving through the Smokey Mountains and even came across a few bears. This was the first time my aunt and uncles have met Anna and she was a big hit.

Anna takes swim lessons.

Patty has enrolled Anna in infant swim lessons at the Cobb County Aquatic Center. She loves the water and has become very comfortable around it. While she is not setting any Olympic records yet, she is building the foundation for years to come.

First Trip to the Beach

Anna got her first trip to the beach this summer on our annual family vacation. We went to Orange Beach, AL for some much needed rest and relaxation. If only Anna knew what "sleeping in" meant.

We took some really cute family pictures on the beach. Anna doesn't really know what to think about sand. She justs stares at it.

She got in the ocean, but enjoys the calm of the kiddy pool more. We had a great time and look forward to doing it again.

Anna makes a choice!

Anna has made an early decision as to who her favorite is. I tried it twice and both outcomes were the same.
