Callie


One of Lillie and Lola's favorite part of our vacation to Hilton Head a couple of weeks ago was the time we spent at Lawton Stables. There was a free petting zoo there that we went to three times because they completely fell in love with Callie, the deer. I only brought my camera the first time we went and it was hot and SUPER sunny so I didn't get a single "good" shot but still I am glad I have these for the memories!




These next couple were from my phone on our last day there when they were telling Callie good-bye.


There was also an old mechanical horse that Lola enjoyed sitting on:

And they LOVED getting to ride the ponies:


Lola thought she was pretty hot stuff! Her very animated running commentary was pretty entertaining.



I loved the little stool where they washed their hands after they were done petting the animals.

  2. The picture of Lola on the stool is priceless. I would absolutely have it enlarged for her bedroom in your new house.

    1. It is such an amazing place, isn't it? We got to hear several musicians sing and the girls danced and danced! Didn't hear Shannon Taylor though. =(

  12. Oh my gosh, those photos of the girls with the deer and the ponies are soooooooooo cute. I love that they love animals. I worked at a Veterinary Hospital for years, and animal people are the best. I love love their little boots too. I have missed so many of your posts, but I do know you are moving, and I can't wait to hear more about it all, and catch up!!!

    1. Thank you! My mom made them! They are one of my favorite dresses ever! We sold them in a shop a few years back but no longer carry children's clothing. =(
