August!

T-ball officially ended a couple of weeks ago, and Granny came down to watch Grady's last game!

Kelly, Louis and Hannah were vacationing with some friends in NC, so we got to spend some time with them as well. This is the last time we'll see them until Christmas since the citrus season starts up in November, so it was nice to squeeze one more visit in. (Here is the web site for their citrus farm: http://www.schachtgroves.com/. They literally have the best oranges you'll ever taste!) Here are the little ones at Maple View Farm after getting some ice cream. :)


We went to campus (UNC) one day to meet Brandon for lunch. Since one of his offices is located under Lenoir Dining Hall, we decided to eat there. It was actually a great place for kids (since it was a buffet), but we definitely stood out! It was the day before classes started, so there were loads of students everywhere. It was definitely a little bizarre to be eating in the dining hall (with our kids) where we all ate when we were students 10+ years ago. Here is a picture of Hannah sitting in the window overlooking campus.

They are true UNC fans! (Landon of course tried to eat his blue hair!)

During their visit, we took a trip to Kidzu one day, which is a children's museum in Chapel Hill. The kitchen area was a big hit! :)

We randomly decided to take a day trip to Mt. Airy (or "Mayberry") where Andy Griffith grew up. It was a really cute town, and the people were extremely friendly! :) Here is a picture of Brandon and Grady with Andy and Opie. :)

Opie's Candy Store! (They actually had squad car tours, but we decided not to do it. Couldn't really picture three carseats in a squad car!

It was a long day in Mayberry. :)
