October!


October arrives on Thursday...that just blows my mind. I cannot believe that we are into the "holiday season" (if you count Halloween and Thanksgiving) already. Time to get the costumes ready (and hope they don't change their minds), and gear up for the craziness that surrounds it all. Lots of fun "fall" events happening this week in Charlotte...get out and have some fun with the family!

Blessings,
