Hunter Farm




What a fun afternoon we had at Hunter Farm with our good friends the Gunters. The 6 of us enjoyed a hay ride through the farm looking at all of the animals and picking out the perfect pumpkin at the end!

Sisters Snuggle!


I love that my girls love to snuggle. It's these little moments that I can catch that I just adore. Maggie loves her Big Sister Ellie and certainly enjoys just lying in her lap sucking her thumb. I hope they will continue to grow to love and adore each other.

COUSINS!







Emma is my first cousin Holly's daughter. She is 6 1/2 years old now and lives in Greensboro. She and Ellie are 2 1/2 years apart and the best of friends. We try to see each other often- but not often enough! Whenever we're together we always have such fun. Holly and Emma came to Charlotte for a night this past weekend. We took the light-rail uptown and had a yummy dinner at Brixx followed by ice cream at Reid's while we waited for our train home. I posted some cute pics of the 2 of them over the years... the bottom one being the latest of the 2 girls together.

Ellie plays Soccer!




Ellie had her first soccer practice Saturday at the field in Cameron Wood. Who knew she would have loved it so much!! After an evening at Dick's Sporting Goods trying to find the right attire (you know my 'girly girl' must wear the part!!) she woke up super excited to play with her friends. I'm excited to watch her progress over the next few weeks this Fall. I know her cousin Holly would love her to love the sport as much as she did growing up.
