Anthony Goes to The Barber Shop
Today was Anthony's first trip to an ol' style barber shop. He cried the whole time but when it was all said and done, he had a really nice cut and his very first lolly pop sucker!

Happy Father's Day!
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
No better way for this dad to spend Father's Day but at the airfield! We are at the International Miniature Aerobatic Club (IMAC) competition in Charlotte, NC.
Before heading back to Virginia, we stopped by to visit with Anthony's Great-Great Uncle Sam and Aunt Lucy. 
A father's day present was waiting at home....a helicopter! Big smiles!

IMAC - Charlotte, NC
We're partying at the International Miniature Aerobatic Club (IMAC) competition this weekend in Charlotte, NC across from the Lowes Motor Speedway. Primo and our friends were all there surviving the extremely hot weather. The temperature has been over 100 degrees with the heat index!
It was so hot that Heather and Anthony spent the day with Anthony's Great-Great Uncle Sam and Aunt Lucy. Sam and Lucy have a garden with lots of vegetables. We had such a great lunch with fresh squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, and other garden fresh veggies.
We joined Thomas (Daddy) back at the airfield later in the evening for a cookout.

Happy Pre-Father's Day
Mom Southern was at a youth conference and Heather mistakenly thought it was Father's Day which lead Dad Southern and Thomas to believe it was Father's Day.
We thought we would celebrate by going to the Wytheville, VA radio control (R/C) airfield to fly airplanes. Father's Day cards were exchanged and we ate lunch at Cracker Barrel. Anthony loved his jelly cornbread! Meanwhile, we were wishing many confused looking people a Happy Father's Day!
We didn't know that it wasn't Father's Day until Mom came home that evening! Oh well, we should celebrate Father's (...and Mother's) Day every day!

Claytor Lake Festival
The Claytor Lake State Park celebrated 70 years of lake living this weekend. Claytor Lake is a man made lake in the mountains of Virginia.
At the festival there were crafts, performing arts including the local Native Americans, music bands, food, balloons, vendor booths, car show, remote controlled cars/trucks/motorcycles/boats/airplanes clubs on site performing shows and stunts, antique fire truck display sponsored by the Old Dominion Historical Society, motorcycle clubs, and many other activities.
Grandma Hanks (Anthony's great grandmother), Anthony, and Heather enjoyed the day! Grandma Hanks even ran into her past neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Meyers.
