NC Trip: Week 2

NC Trip:

YES this was MONTHS ago -

but things are a bit busy...

especially with the holidays!

So here goes week 2 of our NC Trip...

Week 2

Week 2 started off with my pregnant sister in the hospital

twice...

in labor...

but not hard enough labor to keep her.

Me & her mother-in-law 

(who happens to be the godmother of my 2 youngest)

were going to go to one of my favorite parks

and have lunch and just enjoy the 

updated park.

It had undergone major renovations

and we had not seen it since it had

reopened.

So Tuesday morning my sister calls

and informs me she would not be 

joining us at the park.

I asked her why not...

she said she was

in the hospital preparing for her baby!

(I proceeded to call her a brat - what sisterly love!)

So we spent all Tuesday in the hospital 

waiting for my nieces arrival.

See that posting 

here

if you missed it.

Wednesday we had decided to meet my 

college roommate and the godmother

of my oldest two 

and all of her crew at a children's museum

in Greensboro.

It was halfway between her house and my parents.

We had a BALL!!!

Here are a few pictures from our day:

Wild Thing all decked out and 

ready for the day.

Mercy!

Mr. T loves shopping...

And he took the cash register off the counter,

put it down on the bottom shelf

then proceeded to lay down on the floor

and play with it...

I dunno...

My god-daughter, her little brothers & J,

treated us to a little performance...

A little finger painting...

Then we got to play in and explore

some real life, 

true to size

neat vehicles!

I am not sure I want 

any race care drivers

or truck drivers in my future...

But then again -

I don't think we have to worry about this one

becoming a race car driver!

And this just doesn't seem right...

Neither does this one...

And yes,

I totally let her do this...

and stood back and took pictures while

it was happening too.

I don't think Mr. T screamed too loudly...

This was our crew!

We had a great time!!

Thursday,

we had made plans to go see our sweet 

girl we used to live next door to...

she had started her first year at UNC.

(Better known as "pew"-NC around our house)

I told her so many times that she was the 

ONLY 

reason I had ever stepped foot on that blue campus.

And as much as I

HATE

to admit it!

The campus was 

BEAUTIFUL!

Absolutely beautiful!

Dern it!

Here is the view from 

just outside her dorm room.

We had to go to 

"The Old Well"

and

yes,

I actually drank from it.

So not only did I go to the campus...

but I drank their water too!

EWWWWW!!! 

We had a great time hanging out with her.

It was nice to see our sweet friend

and we were so happy to see

she was doing well at school.

She is a little smarty pants

and will do well!

(Side note:

Apparently, I have met my limit on pictures 

through blogger.  So it is a little more involved and 

time consuming to get pictures on here...

I am considering moving to my own site...

bare with me...)
