Weekend With Brighton

We welcomed a new nephew into the family on September 20th!  Baylor Tide Flowe, a second beautiful baby boy for Season and Jason.  He's absolutely precious and I can't wait to watch him grow into a little man, just like his brother Brighton!

We decided to watch Brighton for the weekend to give Season and Jason some time to bond with little Baylor.  We also were in need of some much needed quality time with our nephew!  We had a very busy and fun-filled weekend.

Friday night I had a huge craving for fish and hushpuppies and the only place that I wanted to go was Captain Steve's.  Fortunately for us, I found one on Monroe Rd near Matthews, which was much closer than the original located in Fort Mill.  We got there just in time to miss the crowd and introduced Brighton to what we hope to be a new favorite, shrimp.

We weren't sure about his reaction at first, but as soon as he tried them he loved them.  Before we knew it, we were chanting "Shrimp Time" and he could have cared less about the french fries that accompanied them.

On Saturday we got up early and took a chance driving to Columbia to beat the rain and go to Riverbanks Zoo.  We got there shortly before 10:30 and it turned out to be a perfect day.  The skies were mainly overcast with some sun peaking through at times, but the temperature was perfect.  We fed cows, goats and giraffes!  He even got to ride a miniature ChooChoo Train with his Uncle Craig.  Overall, it was a perfect day.
