Today's Activities

The boys and I took Charlotte to the vet this morning for her annual exam and shots. I didn't have any recommendations for a vet so I just chose one that is close to our new house.


The office is about a year old and in a new building so it's really clean and nice still. There is a dog park behind the office for dogs that are patients to use anytime.

Carter liked that he got to help and hold Charlotte's leash once we were in the exam room ...


Charlotte wasn't nearly as scared as she was at our vet's office in Knoxville. I never noticed her hind legs shaking like they would there. Carter still gave Charlotte lots of hugs to make sure she didn't get scared ...


Taking both boys and the dog somewhere on my own is always an adventure. The boys were being good but loud while we waited in the exam room. The receptionist must of realized I didn't bring in enough toys because she brought in some coloring books, crayons, and these ...


Carter wore this one most of the day ...


I liked the new vet enough. I like our old vet better but this one was nice and seemed thorough. The staff was nice as well and they charged me a little less than our old vet did for Charlotte's last annual exam.

After the vet we dropped Charlotte off back at home and went to Harlinsdale Farm to have a picnic. This park is an old farm that had walking horses that the city of Franklin bought. There's not much there besides the old barns, some gravel trails, and a dog park.




We found a nice shady spot under a tree and set up our picnic. It wasn't too hot and really quiet at the park - it was really relaxing.



Rylan is just like his brother - he found some sticks and was content.


After lunch we walked around the park for a little bit.


Carter smelled all the flowers that he found ...


After the park we went over to the main Williamson Country library and got a library card.


Their storytime started up again this week but it conflicted with our vet appointment so we'll probably check that out next week.
