Our visit to South Carolina

At the beginning of November drove down to South Carolina to visit the Colella's!  We had a great time as always....last year when we went Lilah was only 6 months old, but this time she is on the move and a blast with her cousins Roman & Gianna.  Those two wore Lilah out everyday, I don't think she wined the whole time we were visiting :), she took a 3 hour nap everyday & slept 12 hours at night.

We left our house at 1:30 am to beat the traffic & it was a good plan, we were down there by lunch time with only one stop for breakfast, gas & potty break.  I think that is pretty good for a 18 month old & a pregnant momma.

On Friday morning we went to the park to run off some energy.























the girls love minnie mouse

Lilah had a great time having Ro chase her around

Bedtime show & snack

On Saturday afternoon we went to horse farm to see horses & the kids could ride a pony.  Lilah loves horses & will make the neigh sound all the time.  She got so excited when she saw all the horses....

This Clydesdale was mean to the other horses



You could tell Ro had ridden a pony before






"Look daddy! more horses"

Gianna wasn't a big fan, so she only went around once

Lilah did not want to wear the helmut, so Daddy held onto
her all the way around - twice



She did not want to get off, she cried.




This deer was able to follow us around & would "beg" us for carrots.  Lilah wasn't so sure about him.








On Sunday all the South Carolina family came over to celebrate birthdays & have some fall fun - most people wore flannel shirts.

Lilah loves chairs, especially ones her size



It was a little hard to get both girls to look at the camera
at the same time.  Still cute though


Lilah loved that there were so many balls to play with,
one of her favorite things to play with.

Yay! we got to see Aunt Missi.

 It was also Gianna's birthday weekend!



Once she got the hang of blow out the candles, I think
she did it 3 times.


"I think I will lick my cake"

Oooh presents!!!








Finally, Lilah loved all the new to her toys at Ro & Gianna's house - her favorites were all the balls, the tunnel & kitchen set.







Thank you Aunt Stacie, Uncle Toby, Ro & Gianna for letting us visit you!
