Living far away as we do, Carlton had LOTS of people to meet and places to visit this first visit back to the east coast. For one, he had to meet all of his extended family! We threw a surprise 60th birthday party for my dad, so that was a fun time to hang out with all the aunts, uncles and cousins. Here he is with his three great-aunts, my dad's sisters.
And here with a crew of his second-cousins...
He also got to spend time with his Great-Uncle Dick in Atlanta. He and my mom posed with photos of their parents, so Carlton got a sweet photo opp with the Holt side of the family.
More family visits: Carlton went to visit everyone at work! First, Sherrill & Hutchins, where he had to pose in the family offices.... with his Poppy:
With his Uncle Ricky:
and with his Great-Uncle Tom:
Then we visited his Aunt Kristin at her school
and at the outdoor festival where she was selling her jewelry!
We all had a fun happy hour outing in downtown Roswell one day. Carlton loved sitting up at the table with my dad.
Friends: Among the many friends Carlton got to meet were my dear childhood friend Emily and her family. We had a playdate with her three girls a couple of times. Her twins are just a few weeks older than Carlton.
I love how Carlton seems to realize he's on a couch with three girls in this shot!
We were joined one day by another sweet friend from growing up, Keri...
And then we had a fun visit from our family friends, the Wades, one afternoon.
All in all, an incredibly full and fun few weeks. Carlton loves new people and places, so he was loving life on this vacation. We already can't wait for the next visits!
