Weekend in Charlotte

Last weekend, we went down to Charlotte, North Carolina to celebrate Phil's Grandma's 80th birthday. Aunt Maran, Uncle Josh, Allie, and Grann also flew into Charlotte so we could all be together. It was such a fun weekend! On Friday, we spent the morning at Great Grandma's playing. Then we went back to the hotel to get settled and let the little kids take naps. Then we wandered around the Phillip's Place shops before having dinner at Wolfgang Puck's pizza place. It was delicious!

On Saturday morning, we went back to Great Grandma's and she and Aunt Sandy took Will and Alex to the train station so we could take the train downtown. Will loved the ride and Alex thought it was pretty fun as well. Then we went to the Children's Library which had all sorts of fun toys and activities for kids. Will and Alex each got a balloon sword before we went in and they loved them. We met up with Aunt Maran, Uncle Josh, and Allie and then grabbed a quick lunch before the little ones went down for naps. Then we went to the nice mall to wander around before Great Grandma's birthday dinner.

On Sunday, we all visited for a while before Grann, Aunt Maran, Uncle Josh, and Allie had to head back to the airport. After they left, we played on the playground across from her apartment and grabbed lunch before we had to go to the airport. After we left, Will kept talking about how he wanted to go back! From Charlotte, we flew to Tallahassee so we could spend 5 days at the beach with Grandma and Grandpa on St. George's Island. More on that later...
