Ballet Baby

Today Kate was all about the tutu. Just like her favorite book - "Ballet Kitty." She wore it to Starbucks with a green top that hardly matched. But she was a cutie. Here she is in the front yard picking my flowers in her tutu.

And here are a few fun pictures from our road trip to Rome, GA. Don was on business and I tagged along. We do love exploring new places!

They take their similarities to Rome, Italy pretty seriously. This statue is from Italy, I guess because they share the same name and both have 7 hills. Just in case you didn't take Latin and learn all this stuff. That's Romulus and his twin brother Remus, who were raised by a She-wolf (The Capitoline Wolf is a very famous statue). Then Romulus killed Remus and founded Rome. Or something like that (it has been 20 years - yikes!).

At the top of the hill that's downtown, there is a great park with a clock tower. Beautiful and quiet. I sat a few minutes under a tree.

A view from the park.

I found this great little bakery downtown to have a croissant and cappuccino.

It was awfully tempting not to have one of these yummy cupcakes.

Tree-lined downtown streets.

A nice trip with the best guacamole EVER at Rosa Mexicano on the way home (thanks Ashleigh for introducing me to it!!!).
