fall

Does anyone else love fall? The weather is perfect, and the clothes are equally as perfect. Cords and a cashmere sweater. Love it.

Greek!

The new season of Greek started yesterday. I don't know why I love this show, as well as Gossip Girl so much, but I do. The only other television show I ever watched was Gilmore Girls, and I hate that they are no longer doing any new seasons.

Whilmington

We went to Whilmington this past weekend, and let me tell you it was so much nicer and prettier than Myrtle Beach. I actually cannot wait to go back to visit. The city has so much history, and so many things you can visit. We went to take a look at a battleship in the area as well as a really nice aquarium. Carolina Beach was so pretty, especially in the evening. There is a lighthouse in the area, but we spent the majority of our time on the beach so we will have to visit it next summer. Pics to come soon.

My favorite little skirt

I am usually not a fan of Old Navy(I much prefer the Gap), however I found the cutest little preppy skirt for my little Lexibear. I really do love this skirt.

The Dark Knight

I loved, loved, loved the new Batman movie. It was one of those movies that as soon as it ended, I was already thinking of when I could come see it again. Mother-in-Law watched lexibear for us, so we were able to do a date night. It was the first one since lexibear was born 9 months ago! We need to try to do it more often, as it was so nice to get out on our own. If you haven't gone to see this movie yet, you really need to consider going to watch it, just without any kids, as it is a semi-dark movie.

Needed Item

Every girl, in my opinion, needs these books on hand.

And

Rain Again

Rain has a catch 22 quality about it to me. We, as in the grand ole state of NC that I live in, need rain pretty badly. We tell each other, in casual conversation, that it needs to rain, and it needs to rain every day for months to stock back up on our water supply. In June, the grass in the frontyard of every home in my development looked brown and really almost dead. Flowers looked wilted everywhere, even the trees looked wilted. Not at all the summers I remember from childhood. Anyhow, we knew we needed rain, and lots of it. Well, now we are getting that rain. Every day, and I sit and look out the window now, wishing it would go away so I could take my baby out to the pool. Every afternoon now I hear the telltale sound of thunder and I know that we will be stuck indoors again this evening. Summer just doesn't seem to be what it used to.
