Ocmulgee Indian Mounds

We decided to visit a local historical landmark today in Macon. It was an awesome place, full of history and information. We plan to go back once it's a little cooler and walk the trails on the river, it was so beautiful there but just too hot.







The earth lodge where politicians and religious leaders would meet, the floor is 1000 years old, notice the bird shape for the ceremonial rituals ?

1st Day Of First Grade

Today was Lauren's first day of First grade, she loved it. she said they had a good day, ate cookies, played outside and played a few games inside. HA....She said her teacher said this was only a first day thing so the next few days we'll get to see how she really likes it once the harder work starts coming at her. She attends a private Christian school that is pretty small, they have 398 kids total in the whole school so most of her friends from kindergarten are in her class now also.
