Getting out of Charlotte

Last weekend we decided to get out of Charlotte and go to Athens for the weekend. It was just the 4 of us, and we had a great time! The trip there was not pleasant, Aly screamed for most of the way. Needless to say, when the kids went to bed I went out to Target to find her some pacifiers she would take. Thankfully, she is now taking the MAM paci occasionally but doesn't really prefer to have one. Ansley was the same way, but she was a much better passenger on trips then Aly is.

We hit up the pool at the Athens Country Club and really enjoyed ourselves. Aly slept most of the time so we got in some good pool time. Later that night we went to Blind Pig for dinner and then went and walked around campus so Ansley could run off her energy. How she had energy after playing at the pool for 3 hours and not taking a nap I have no idea?

Ansley loves to spray us with the squirt bottle... and I will not complain!

Ansley LOVES the fountain on North Campus

We got up on Sunday and packed our things up and headed back home. It was a nice break to just get away for a couple of days.... We definitely need to do it more often!
