North Carolina

We only took a few pictures yesterday because poor ms Beth was feeling quite under the weather. We drove 5 hours down to greensboro nc to see william control. Beth loved the show, i stayed safely tucked in her purse away from the rambunctious crowd. 

                               This map was HUGE i had to take a picture with it!!!!

This is william while he was singing, it was hard to get a good picture because everyone kept jumping around. And then the lights would change.

 This is beth and william after the show they were both really tired. we left right after this photo.

on the drive home there was lots of traffic because they were working on the roads. We made it home around 12:30am. Today we have slept in!! its very rainy out so we are going to do some more exploring inside!!!

Made it to Virginia!!!

Today i arrived in Norfolk Va!

My wonderful hosts Beth and Jon had a huge party awaiting me.

 baby buttfreckle was sooo sad when it was time for me to leave auntie b's that she let him come to va with me!!! I think he fits right in!
i did a little exploring then we went for a drive.

beth sure loves her Harry Potter Legos!

 there was so much to look at on our drive to virginia beach, it was exciting!!

We went over a big bridge and i got to look at the water, it was very pretty.

 When we arrived at our destination which happened to be beths grandmas i met one of her nieces and both of her nephews. They were really nice kids and they showed us some fun things in the yard. Im sure we will see them again soon!

 They just got a huge new pool!!! Everyone cant wait for the warm weather!!

And finally our last adventure of the day i met some new friends. It was a very busy day and tomorrow there is also quite an adventure planned. We are driving down to north carolina for a concert then coming home to get ready for a trip to New Jersey and New York!!!

Auntie and I had some alone time 

at this Children's Garden this morning

before she went to work.  It is very near her work.

This will be my last outing with her as I am 

headed early to Virginia because my next

host has a special vacation planned!

The Children's Garden,  Greenville, South Carolina

Beautiful flowers!

Learn your alphabet and the names of plants.

Lots of cool creatures!

The park is near the Swamp Rabbit Trail.

This little rabbit kept showing up

without warning!

Lots of colors!

Hmmmmm...I am in the photo

but you probably can't see me!

Do you know your children's stories?

Peter Rabbit!

I really like the murals in the Secret Garden.

Insects!

One of my favorites!

I am important!

During a particularly difficult time in her life

Auntie found this in a ditch by the road while

taking a walk.  She said it was as if God himself

was speaking to her that her life mattered.

She keeps it on a shelf in her living room.

Around Auntie's home....

Auntie B showed me a few things

around her home tonight.  She said

that some other Buttfreckles had quite

an adventure in this plant!

This is an early photo of one of

Auntie's nephews, Jeremiah.  She

keeps it on her dresser drawer.  

Hint..hint...she would love to have 

a framed pic of each her

great-nephews!  It is ok though..she

said she can print them out from

Facebook...so no worries!

This is Mr. John being silly.  He says he 

can't wait until he has grandchildren.  I guess

having a little friend will have to do until that happens!

Auntie B supports a young girl who lives in 

Africa.  Each year she gets a new photo and 

a handwritten note and some drawings from

Shakira.  Auntie wishes she could go see

Shakira in Africa.  

These little mirrors are on the wall in

Auntie's bathroom.  Can you see me?

These roses are from Auntie's rosebush in 

her front yard.  They are beautiful, but I think

I look pretty good myself!

Getting to hang out in Auntie's room is

pretty cool because she has a treasure from

Mama B on her bed and it makes me feel 

special!  I match too!  Miss you Mama B!
