Mason’s Birthday

Mason’s Pirate-themed birthday party was a hit. Chick-Fil-A puts on a wonderful kid’s birthday party. The cow even visited. Mason had a really good time. Hard to believe the little guy is already three. We’re starting to look at Charter schools for Violet for next year. Kindergarten is upon us.

Autumn in North Carolina
