We decided to take a trip south this winter mainly hoping to get to see Becky and Adri since it's been two and a half years since I've seen them. But the Lord had other plans. I got a little cold so going to Virginia got cancelled. So we left a couple days later for part two of our trip and stayed at Seth and Tara's for a few days for the SC part of our plans. Overall it was a great time! The kids did really well, Caroline loved playing with cousins, it was warm and summer like. ....but best of all I just really enjoyed the time of adult conversation with the family and felt I got to know folks much better than before. We also attended two baptisms, David and Nehemiah, and got to attend GPC. I hope someday we will have a church like that up here. Oh and I can't forget that Tara watched the kids for us at nap time one day so we could run an errand which happened to include a Starbucks run :-). And we got two Chick fil A lunches - yum! The trip ended on a sad note with us heading home several days early since Becky's family came down throwing up :-(. So we ended up not doing any of our original plans, but the trip home went well. However we left behind summer and came home to 8 inches of snow. John had to clear the driveway before we could even get in!

When your kids sleep in the car on a long trip you must document it.

Exploring at our hotel in Lexington, KY. It was wonderful, we got a suite so the kids had their own room and we all slept well! |
