Watch Out!

On September 20, 2007 Kristopher got his learner's permit. He had completed his course hours and behind the wheel a couple weeks before. You really don't have to worry too much about him on the road. He is extremely cautious. We need to take him out in the van to practice. He hasn't driven with Dallas or me yet. It has been a busy week but we will definitely have to fit it in next week. In North Carolina you have to have your learner's for a year before you get your driver's license. So on September 20, 2008 we will be sitting at the driver's license office once again.

New name coming soon

If you are wondering why the header is in the post below it is because I am working on a new blog name. I want the previous entries to be under Journey to Grace. Some were after the journey was over but they will still stay under that heading.This is the only way Dallas and I could figure out how to do it without starting a complete new blog.

Thanks, Terri, for the suggestion for a new blog name. Keep the ideas coming.

More Myrtle Beach

As you can see from the slide show we surprised Dallas with a cake for his birthday. Saturday after the beach we went to a benefit concert at the Hard Rock Park. The park is expected to open in the Spring of 2008. It is the only one of its kind. They have this building set up where you can go buy souveniers. Then you can walk through different rooms and each room depicts a section of the park. It was pretty neat. Kristopher collects Hard Rock t-shirts. Funny thing is he doesn't like that kind of music. He enjoys listening to classical music and video game soundtracks. Go Figure!

Later in the evening it was on to Broadway at the Beach. Margaritaville was Dallas' choice for his day late birthday dinner. It was delicious and the kids modeled their parrot masks. While Kristopher and Nicholas enjoyed an hour at MagiQuest, Grace and Julia made two new friends at Build a Bear. This Build a Bear has 3 different sections- the tradition build an animal section, build a dino, and friends2Bmade. We choose the friends2Bmade section. Julia built a friend2B and Grace choose a sweatheart doll(with alittle help). They had a fun making their new friends. If you are wondering why Zachary did neither it was because he lost this privilege on Friday due to bad behavior. Three strikes and you are out.

For Dallas' birthday we headed to Myrtle Beach for the weekend. Saturday morning we went to the beach. It was Grace's first time to the beach(as far as we know). She loved playing in the sand and walking in the water. She had no fear of the ocean. We stayed and played for about 2 hours. We all had a great time!

Happy Birthday, Dallas!
