Raggs Live In Concert!

Zachary said goodbye to summer with a fun-filled weekend.Saturday morning at 10:30 Zachary, Mommy, Nanny and Grammy went to see Raggs Live In Concert at the Halton Theatre.For those of you who may not be familiar with Raggs, I will give you the abbreviated description.Raggs is a PBS T.V. Show featuring life size puppets as dogs, who sing, dance and play instruments.They incorporate lessons much like Sesame Street.Zachary surprised all of us when Raggs appeared on stage.He wasn't scared even though we had front row, center stage seats, so Raggs was practically in our laps.It was one of the cutest shows I have ever seen.The actors were personable and entertaining.They came over to us several times and gave Zachary "high fives".They blew kisses and waved to him and he loved it. After the concert we event to Hawthorne Pizza for lunch and found out we really do live in a "small world".Zachary was wearing his Raggs T-shirt and when the hostest saw it she told us Raggs is her roommate.She told Zachary she would give Raggs a big hug from him.She said Raggs is was leaving to go on tour and he would be happy to know his fans loved his first concert.Both Raggs and Zachary shared their first official concert.Following Zachary's afternoon nap we were off again to Grammy's Company (Wray Ward Advertising) Picnic.The picnic was held at Propst Family Farm in Concord.Zachary's fun continued with jumping/bouncing in a moon walk and sliding down a bigger than life slide. I hope you enjoy looking at the first official Raggs groupie pictures!

Wordless Wednesday

 

Future Olympian!

Look out Michael Phelps here comes Zachary Allison! He may not be old enough for the Olympics quite yet but, we are already training. We have yet to master the many different strokes. However, he still gets a gold medal in our house!

Great Paw Paw & Nana!

This past weekend Jeremy and I took Zachary to his Great PawPaw & Nana's house. He had a lot of fun with them. Nana blew up a couple of balloons for Zachary. He would run and chase them around the house. It's the simple things in life! After we left their house we took Zachary to get ice cream. His favorite is vanilla with sprinkles. We figured out that if we let him use the "sample spoons" it makes it easier for him to eat more and wear less!

Sunset Beach

Last week we went to Sunset Beach with my family. We had a great time. It was extremely hot but we still had fun. My brother Jake had a baseball tournament at Myrtle Beach, as well. His team did great but unfortunately they weren't able to win the tournament. That was okay because that meant they had more time at the beach. We weren't sure how Zachary was going to do in the ocean but he loved everything except for the waves. When he saw the waves coming he would run away and yell, " The ocean is coming!" His favorite thing to do was to chase the birds down the beach. Since he wouldn't go in the water Jeremy dug a hole for him in the sand and filled it up with water. Zachary loved it and he played in it ALL day! I think that the consensus was that our favorite thing to do was to go the Calabash Creamy for some yummy yummy ice cream. I think we were there at least every other night. One day we went to Broadway On The Beach to do some shopping. There was one store in particular that was made just for Zachary. This store had every color of M&M you could think of. As everyone knows Zachary loves M&M's more than anything else. They also had ICEE's so of course we had to get one! We had such a great time. Below are some pictures that I took . I know there are a lot but I just couldn't decide which ones to put post. Take note of how great Jeremy is at catching a wave. Sorry it took me so long to post but I hope you enjoy the pictures. Click on view all images on the slide and you can see all the pictures.

We're Back!

We just got back from our beach vacation with my family. We left last Sunday and we got back home last night. We had such a great time. I haven't uploaded my pictures to the computer yet but when I do I will post them and more about our vacation.
