H&M in North Carolina

They finally opened an H&M in North Carolina and Paige could not be more excited.  H&M is in Crabtree Valley Mall in Raleigh so we decided to make the roadtrip this weekend.  We started by stopping by my sisters church to see Samantha's cousins and to say hello to everyone.  Morgan had play practice and Chase had soccer so we kissed them goodbye and off we went.  Daddy and Samantha went on our own shopping experience to give mom all the time that she needed to check out the store, which included making a quick stop by the cars for a couple of rides.  After shopping we called my sister to see if they wanted us to pick up some wings for dinner prior to heading back.  Samantha did have her very first wing (but Paige made me admit the picture with the chicken bone in her mouth was just for a quick shot, no baby was actually hurt during the making of this blog).  Grandma Bern made a surprise visit to see everyone when she heard we were in town.  Prior to putting on their pajama's and beginning the road trip back to Charlotte we let Samantha and Ethan get out some energy in their diapers...they had a blast. 

NC Zoo Trip!!!

Samantha's first trip to the North Carolina zoo...Grandma JuJu has been talking about this day even before she was born.  Luckily the rain held off until right when we were leaving and we had the best day walking around the zoo.  Samantha loved it!!!
