We've kinda been here, there, and everywhere these past few weeks....here are a few things we've been up to:
1. Chimney Rock, NC
Noel's sweet Granny passed away a few weeks ago, and we went up to the mountains of NC to celebrate her wonderful life. The fall is absolutely gorgeous in North Carolina, and especially in the mountains, so we were able to hike to the top of Chimney Rock while we were there.
2. Halloween
My sister-in-law, Lindsay, made me and Crew Boo the Little Red Riding Hood and Big Bad Wolf costumes for Halloween. Aren't they beautiful costumes?! We had so much fun dressing up this year. The boys wore a few different costumes this year. We went trunk or treating at church on Friday night (Charlie and his friends, Piper and Claire, have been trunk or treating together since 2010!), and we went to my Mom and Dad's for trick or treating on Halloween night. My dad had special stormtrooper costumes for them (dream come true), and my mom and I drove them around while they trick or treated in the neighborhood (and came back with full size candy bars...oh yeah!)
3. Christmas Party
Early, yes! Super fun, yes! I went with Mary Beth and Jillian to Thanks A Latte's fun Christmas party. We ate yummy food, browsed and bought cute gifts, and won awesome giveaways. Yay! Maghon from All She Wrote Notes was there and made everyone super cute, personalized gift tags. It was fun seeing her again since meeting her last year at the pumpkin calligraphy class!
4. Winning Season
Remember how I coached Charlie's soccer team this year?! Well, good news....we had an undefeated season!! It was so exciting. I was all in to this soccer coach/soccer mom thing this year. I even bought a bench for my players to sit on when they weren't playing, had a whistle, AND a stopwatch. :) I also had the sweetest (and best, of course) team there ever was.
Walker boy was amazing in his soccer season as well. He was super focused, ran fast, scored goals, played great defense, and was probably...no, definitely, the cutest soccer player those fields ever saw.
I hope y'all are doing great and that you've had a wonderful start to your week!!!

Charlie's glasses are killing me with the cuteness!
love your costumes! can't believe your sister in law made y'alls! how fun. looks like you've been having so much fun!
We love the mountains. We made a recent trip there ourselves, though we did not make it to Chimney Rock. If you can hike it with three little ones, then I should at least give it a try. Maybe next time!
Always love seeing updates from my favorite family :) Sorry to hear about Noel's grandmother, but it looks like you guys celebrated her life in a wonderful way!
Your sister law in super talented! Those costumes are amazing. An undefeated season?! You go Coach!!
Sorry to hear about Noel's Granny- but what a beautiful place to celebrate her. I've been to Chimney Rock and the views were just incredible there! I love your little stormtroopers, they are too cute!
You have been busy! Love your Halloween costumes!
You were the cutest soccer coach ever! Congrats on a great season! Also, we didn't go on one hike the entire time we lived in NC and it was always on our list of things to do... guess we'll just have to come back!
That pic of Noel with the boys is precious. And I absolutely love the Halloween costumes :)
