July visit with Mimi and Bapa…

In July, we met Emerson’s (Mary Clare’s first and best heart friend) family on Hilton Head Island for lots of fun in the sun!  Later in the week, Casey, Molly and Will joined us for lots of fun with the Haarlow crew!

McCanless and Lauren, Emerson’s first cousin, really hit it off and had such a great time!  I’m so thankful that this family is in our lives!

After a day at the beach and pool, we all went to Harbour Town to see Shannon Tanner play!

Erica, Emerson, Mary Clare and me…Mary Clare was having way too much fun to stop for a photo opp.

The girls ran themselves silly and were such a mess!  What low oxygen levels??

Two heart grands…Mary Clare’s Mimi and Emerson’s Nana.

The ladies at Forsythe Jewelers in HH have been following Mary Clare’s story and wanted Mimi to introduce all of us.  They were so sweet and treated the girls to such cute bracelets and rings especially for little girls!

Mimi treated Molly and McCanless to a night at the Main Street Children’s Theater.  They saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and each came home with golden tickets!

“Lady Ride” with Bapa is always filled with laughs!
