Annual trip to Charlotte, NC!

We've officially got a tradition going in our family now where the girls (+ George, my aunt's second half-- they are both equally wonderful :-) ) get together at the end of September for a girls' weekend. So. much. fun. Emily has been to Charlotte three times. Once in my belly, once as a newborn, and once as a toddling, babbling little girl. We had a great time soaking up the beautiful, cool weather, all quacking like ducks because Emily's quack is so funny to hear. We also had the joy of having one of my dear childhood friends drive up from Charleston to spend the weekend with us, too. I hadn't seen Taylor since Emily's baby shower in 2010 and now Taylor is expecting a little one! We checked out the local farmer's market, where we got pics with the pumpkins and E discovered how much fun indian corn is to play with. We also had a great lunch over at my grandmother's retirement community where Emily got oodles of attention from everyone. Mostly about how much she can eat, haha. Yes, she does impress everyone with her eating prowess! All in all a great, quick visit and I can't wait to do it again. Here are some pictures from the trip!
