Warning: This may be the cutest thing you ever see.

First Beach Trip!

Very overdue... This trip was in mid-January, but here it is!

We adventured to Bald Head Island for our anniversary of ten years together, and first big adventure as a family of three.  The logistics were not as crazy as I expected, and we had a really nice trip.  We weather was gorgeous!  We got some beach time, walked in the woods, and rode golf carts around the island, which meant that Will got to face forward, a rare treat.

He put his feet in the ocean for the first time, and it was cold!! He was not happy about that.

My cousins are the best!

Halloween Night

Cowboy, baby.  Yee-Haw!

 Our friend James and his Mommy and Daddy came to the party.

Family Halloween Picture!

 William-sized pumpkin.

We had a fun night with LOTS of trick-or-treaters, and our usual good time of cooking out, visiting with friends, and handing out candy.

Rocky Mount Adventure

Our adventure to Rocky Mount was planned to be a quick in and out, but we got to see lots of new faces.  Will thinks Pops' and Leh-Leh's back porch is the best place in the world!  There are crickets and frogs and water fountains, and ceiling fans!  And no one will put him down, so it is all snuggles.

We got to meet Aunt Kelly!  Yay!

Uncle Alex got to snuggle and give me a bottle, too!

Family photos!

Maddie, too!

Granny Robin really knows how to snuggle! 

Uncle Austin came to see me, too, but we managed to not get any pictures of him.  :-( 

Sorry Austin!

Mrs. Rosemary snuggles, too!

Mr. Larry sat with me in the sun.

Great Aunt Alicia came to see me!

Great-Grandma always gives good hugs!

Cousin Nick was great! 

So was cousin Kate!

My new cow hat from the Summers.  So cute!

We had a great time!  Mommy and Daddy enjoyed the break. Will and Maddie slept all day Sunday and most of Monday. We are hoping for a longer trip to Rocky Mount to  see all the "almost-family" in Rocky Mount in mid-September.

Thank you everyone for coming to see Will and for giving Mommy and Daddy a break!
