September 2007

The highlight of the month was our trip to the Napa Valley for Angela's sister's wedding.  (More than half the photos below are from the 3-day trip.)  The rest of the month consisted of a new toy store grand opening with Curious George, Mikayla's first school experience, and a day trip to Edisto Island thanks to our friends Ivey & Allison.

Another highlight of the month, though not photographed, was Dan's successful dissertation proposal defense.  This was a critical milestone for him in the doctoral program, and he is now getting set to collect data for his dissertation.

She got to ride on a train with George, too.

Another trip to the beach. Edisto Island this time.

Not old enough to enjoy the sun and sand yet.
