impromptu chapel hill day trip

On Saturday we woke up with the day ahead of us and no plans and we decided to drive up to Chapel Hill for a quick day trip. We grabbed bagels for breakfast and then left Charlotte around 10 and arrived in Chapel Hill around 12:30. Andrew slept for about an hour in the car so he was feeling quite rejuvenated for our campus jaunt. After a lunch at Ham's on Franklin Street we walked around some of the shops. Caleigh decided to complete her cheerleading outfit with pompoms and a loudhorn - somehow she knew exactly what to do with them... maybe I should prepare myself for actually liking/respecting cheerleading as a sport.
She got a little jaded by the 2nd store. But was refreshed by a ride on Daddy's shoulders. Family photo... Andrew - I apologize in advance that your tummy is hanging out in this picture. There was a little tackling going on. One of my favorite pictures of the 2 of them so far... We're going to school now Mom - see you later... After the campus exploring we headed over to Maple View Farms for some homemade ice cream to top off the day before our drive back to Charlotte. We had a blast returning to our roots and we were so proud of ourselves for doing something so impromptu with the kids.
