Updated November Pix

Here is Cutler doing what he does best - play football! This was at our hotel on the beach last weekend. We spend Sat and Sun on Wrightsville Beach, NC.


Cut-Dog is tired after a long party.



The family.


Mom and Dad with the Cut-Man.



Daddy sitting with the girls on the porch waiting for their car pool. I do this pretty much every day. Love it.

More camping pix from Labor Day

This is how we roll for breakfast....we love mom! The girls stopped for a little rock climbing during while we hiked around the lake. 2.5 miles and no complaints!
I haven't quite figured it out, but Adelle always wants to hold something up for pictures. In this case, a pancake was the only thing she had near by. She's such a goofball and I love her so much.


Cut-man showing them his "O" at Capone's Pizza in Boone.

You can see Cutler's pack and play in front of the camper. We set him out there while the kids rode their bikes and played. He loved watching the trucks go by with their big campers attached. As long as the other kids were out there playing, Cutler was good to go.

We took a nice hike around the lake - 2.5 miles! Everyone made it just fine and we didn't see any snakes this time. I didn't complain about that. The girls...
Daddy and Cutler being men.






This is what camping is all about.






Labor Day Weekend - Price Lake

The original plan was to camp at Roan Mountain in Tennessee, but the campground was full. A four-hour drive for nothing! Luckily, Price Lake was just down the Parkway so we ended up having a great time at a familiar campground.

Miss Emily in the camper.

Here's the Cut-man enjoying some lunch. On the very last day, he took a header in this seat and got a couple of scratches on his head. No biggie, but it wasn't fun for mommy!

The kids having fun before bedtime in the camper. Cutler loves to play peek a boo with his sisters and the curtains provided the perfect opportunity.
Daddy setting up...

We did the standard stuff - hiking, throwing rocks, riding bikes, doing nothing. It was a very relaxing family weekend. It was actually a bit chilly the first day and we got a bit of rain. It was a welcome break from the heat and humidity at home. We love the mountains!

Pix from Carowinds

Emily did this one about 5 times. Dad did it 3 times, mom did it twice. How could I resist any rides with a Tomcat out front. It had a ton of loops, twists, and turns. We were a bit wobbly-legged after this!




Mommy and C-Man.

The girls after getting their faces painted. Only one problem - it was about 1,000 degrees with 1000 percent humidity, so the paint was all over their faces in about an hour and a half. They still had a bunch of fun with it.












Charlotte trip

We took a trip down to Charlotte a few weeks back. We had no specific plans other than exploration. We spent an afternoon at a pretty good kid's museum, then spent the evening at Carowinds (an amusement park).
Somebody is hungry...



All better now....
Emily taking her little brother for a little stroll after lunch.


Adelle and daddy made towers out of blocks at the kids museum. Mine was a bit taller than hers, and she had a great time knocking it down.





Durham Bulls Game

What's a baseball game without cotton candy?



Adelle got 3 balls at our last game, so she thinks that is the norm. We tried out best, but nothing came our way this time.
It's Wool E. Bull! You'd never believe it, but the 5 year-old won the race around the bases.
