Bye-Bye

For a while now, Anna has been waving and saying "bye-bye" when people depart her presence or we depart theirs. However, just recently she has grasped the whole concept of packing up and leaving. When playing with her toys she will pack up her bucket, fling it over her shoulder and march around the house saying, "bye-bye." I guess she knows a good mommy or daddy never leaves the house empty handed. You always should have at least one bag or in her case, bucket packed with goodies.

SMA...Saturday Morning Adventures! This weekend we contemplated heading out of town or venturing over to the Wyndham Championship. Instead we stayed in town and had no real agenda. It was by far one of our favorite Saturdays we have had this summer in town. We decided to head over to High Point where there was a huge consignment sale. We did not have high hopes of finding anything as it was the third day of the sale but being the last day it also meant that items were 1/2 off! We did not leave empty handed but instead bought 4-5 pairs of pants and 4-5 tops, each were less than $2.00, many being a $1.00. Kevin's favorite find were a pair of New Balances for Anna. They are too cute. We then headed to Carter Brothers for a late breakfast. Anna loved the fact that she was eating breakfast number 2 at 10am (pictured above). Anna slept for almost three hours when we got home. Daddy was able to take a nap while mommy was pampered with a pedicure with the birthday girl, Becca. We spent our evening eating outside with good friends and strolling the streets of downtown. Not to mention a trip to Target and Babies R Us were had during the day too. It was a productive day but a restful, fruitful day being together.

Our sweet girl.
