Kid-Cation

A couple weekends ago, Lisa and Andrew were super sweet and took the kids for an entire weekend!  Alex and I haven't had a weekend together without the kids since Harper was born.  It was great - we watched our own shows, ate our favorite foods and slept in.  We had massages Saturday and stayed at the Bohemian Hotel uptown.  The kids had an amazing time too!  They slept in a tent in the loft, ate tons of waffles and played with the cats.  Lisa and Andrew took the kids to an indoor play space which we have been hearing about nonstop since the visit.  It was a great weekend!

Zoo

 Gigi and Poppy met us at the Asheboro Zoo yesterday.  We only had three hours, but we were able to make it through the whole thing!

Ice Day

We actually had a snow day in Charlotte yesterday!  It was the first active snowfall Ethan has seen!  Most of the day was actually sleet, but we did get snow early in the morning and then again at night.  Usually when snow is forecasted in Charlotte, we get an hour of flakes and no accumulation.  This time, we had a couple inches!  The kids thoroughly enjoyed their snow day.  They ran into our room first thing in the morning and asked if the snow meant that Santa was coming.  They had a wonderful time sledding and building a snow fort.  We had hot chocolate and spent a lot of time by the fireplace.  

    

We went outside first thing in the morning!
