Springtime in Charlotte

Reece, Hailey and I went to Charlotte over the weekend to spend some time with family. My sister, Mary Katherine, and brother-in-law, Justin, were coming in from Atlanta so we made the trip to see them...and everyone else too!
We left Friday morning and drove to Mimi and Poppi's house. It worked out perfectly because we were able to spend some time with them while everyone else was still at work. Hailey loves her time with Mimi, and truth be told, she's not very good at sharing her with anyone, even Daddy. (She doesn't seem to have as much trouble sharing Grams but I think it's because she's always had to share her with Tucker and Mack. She's been the only grandchild on Ryan's side until Reece came along.) Hailey's favorite thing to do at Mimi's house is play on the screened in porch and deck. Mimi has all kinds of "treasures" out there that she lets Hailey play with, decorative birds, flowers, and other fun stuff.
On Friday, Hailey decided she was going on adventure and wanted to write down the things she and Mimi saw outside. (Reece and I stayed inside for the most part)

When Poppi got home from work, Reece got some snuggle time.
Friday afternoon, we went to Grams and Das' house. Hailey had them all to herself that evening and she loved every minute. She and Das had a great time outside playing "soccer"
 and he even let her use his tools! (I can't figure out how to turn this one)
Hailey had a slumber party in Grams and Das' room that night and didn't sleep too well...My mom said she woke up at 2:00 ready to play with Mary Katherine, Justin, and the baby in Mar's belly. Oops!
Saturday morning Julie, Trey, Tucker and Mack came over and MK and Justin had arrived. We all had the best time together. The kids played in the bounce house,

the girls relaxed, (Hailey had to sit in a chair like Grams)
 and then they played with new bubble guns!


Reece just chilled
Because of the rough night's sleep and playing outside ALL morning, we headed home to Raleigh right after lunch. Hailey slept part of the way and was raring to go see Daddy when we got home.
I love that we're close enough to family for quick overnight trips!
