Grandfather Mountain Dollars Days

It's April and for local high country residents that means dollar days at Grandfather Mtn. So for $3 you can enjoy all the mountain has to offer. It pays to be a local, most of the time.  Monday, Ollie didn't have school and the weather couldn't have been any nicer...up to Grandfather we went

We met up with some of Ollie's friends and these boys just had a ball!

They saw the Bears

They checked out the otters

Getting answers for their junior ranger books

Ollie, Elijah and Charlie having a grrrrrrrrreat time

Of course we had to finish our day with a trip up top to the swinging bridge

Height check on our way out... Just for fun

Ok, side note...Hazel did come with us on this excursion. She was a trooper keeping up with all those boys or putting up with all those boys. She really did great though, slept on and off and then just chill out in her stroller the rest of the time. Very successful outting with my 2 kiddos!

Ollie did not want to pose for this picture. Ollie and Hazel by the Bears

Hazel was the only one who would stop and take a pic in front of the bridge sign. She didn't have much choice. Haha :-)

Great day, great friends and a great time

Ollie and Hazel

Morning snuggles on the couch

A little floor time

Of course the kids love to hangout in mommy and daddy's bed 

They look so much alike

Trying to selfie...poor Hazel. Haha :-)

Family Time

Spent some quality time with our family in Charlotte this past weekend and enjoyed celebrating The Masters. 

Everyone was in The Masters spirit, hence the matching Masters Polos

Enjoying homemade Arnold Palmers...thanks Matt!

Hazel had good time relaxing and getting to meet her cousins and aunts and uncles

Everyone loves Uncle Chip!

Full spectrum of emotion going on here

Spending Sunday morning together, of course everyone was on their devices

Cinnamon roll bribery in exchange for smiles

Hazel Rivers- 3 Months

Ok, well she's technically 3.5 months old now and loves to be propped up. She likes this new outlook on life. 

 Miss Hazel is all smiles and has just started to talk up a storm.  She's just barely starting to be curious about rolling over. She has a new found love for her hands and has figured out how to start reaching and grasping for things. We're still working on sleeping all the way through the night. Hopefully we're getting close...

Love those eyes

She loves her play gym

Enjoys watching Ollie do iPad 

She loves Pungo
