Jackson's 2nd Birthday Party


Jackson had such a good time at his party. The kids enjoyed the jumpy thing, the water ball, and the little sand box used as a pool. They ate hot dogs and Michael's Asian BBQ then they had an ice-cream cake and cup cakes in ice-cream cones. Look at Jackson photos of his party.

Happy Birthday Jackson!



Jackson spent a few days in Statesboro after the 4th. He loved to jump in the swimming pool and as a little boy should, he loved the rubber snakes. He got another hair cut. He played with Kingston one day. Jackson got to ride in a real dump truck, he was so excited. He got to open a few things before his birthday and on his birthday. He started his 2nd birthday with breakfast at Mercier's Orchard, he had an apple pie and a blueberry muffin along with a peach slushy. He also got to pick out a John Deere Truck and farm set. Then he played with his Uncle Billy. He had more fun with the two empty wrapping paper holders than he probably will with the gifts that were wrapped in that paper. We ate an ice-cream cake and opened gifts. It was too funny. Jackson would hide under the table when we started singing and then appear in time to blow out the candle. We did it like 7 times and he did it every time. Uncle Billy got Jackson the coolest race track ramp thing that came with about 10 cars that he loved so much that he wouldn't pay much attention to the gifts we got him. He is going to have a party tomorrow for his friends and family that can make it and is super duper excited. Look at all the fun photos of Jackson.

Happy 4th of July


Jackson spent the 4th with his family. He went to the lake and then watched fireworks down at his Great Aunt Lillie's before he went fell asleep. Some of the older kids tried to show Jackson how fireworks worked and then they showed him how he could fit a lot of rocks in his shirt pocket. He threw the football with Trent. His Lolo and Aunt Madeleine came up to help Jackson celebrate. The next day he went to the Millholland's and played with Finn and Rowan in the little pool, he even went down the big water slide three times with my help. Jackson ate several cup cakes, watermellon and of course played in the sand box. He had so much fun with all his cousins. Look at the photos of Jackson.

Fun with the cousins and trip to Nashville




Jackson spent a couple of days hanging out with his partner in crime, Joselyn. Jackson let Joselyn take him for a ride in his truck. It only took 5 adults to keep them in line. He discovered his shoe bin where he had to pick out which shoes he wanted to try on and put them on himself. He did pretty good with left and right, but matching the pairs of shoes together was a little harder, or knowing Jackson, he just wanted to do things the different more unusual way, kinda like how he always wants to climb up the slide. He spent one day with his cousin Bryce, they had fun playing in the water and attempting to squirt the Tri-State guy with the water hose. They laughed and played great together. Jackson went to his first Garrison Family reunion where he had to follow his big cousins, Callihan and Emma around. Keeping up with 7 years olds in hard work for Jackson and for me. We went to Nashville for a couple of days. Jackson was very excited to go, but didn't exactly make it an easy trip. He had a ball in the pool, where he loved to jump in, he tried his best to jump in with out my help or any type of life jacket. He is such a dare devil and I was once again worn out from that experience. He broke the remote and alarm clock in the hotel room and put my dress and underware in the toilet along with his diaper. We ate at the Rainforest cafe where he loved to talk to the animals that come alive. We went to the Discovery Center where Jackson loved to play with the trains and cars, wow, like we don't get to do that everyday. Besides a few more episodes with chocolate and an ice cream cone, overall I'm glad we took the trip. Check out my photos.
