Alphabet Hunt

Some friends of ours invited us on an Alphabet Hunt in downtown Raleigh. We had honestly hoped to miss it and be home with a newborn but since Liam is stubbornly staying inside, we decided to go out hunting. And we had a great adventure!

We started with a picnic dinner in the park with Marcie and Brantley (the organizers) and Brooke. Once we finished up eating and chatting, we all grabbed our cameras and our imaginations and headed out around downtown. Graeme got into the fun riding in the backpack carrier with Mike. He talked up a storm and was generally hysterical.

We looked at architecture, nature and everything around us for inspiration. There were definitely plenty of "o"s to be found, q was a reach, but we enjoyed tilting our heads and bending our brains to see what could be interpreted as a letter through the images we were taking.

Can you spot the letters in the pictures?


Yep, I spelled H A L E!

It was a lot of fun and we can't wait to see what else we can spell :-) On a side note, hoping the long walk also helps Liam make an arrival soon!
