Road Trip.

We are on the ol country road as I type this (technology still amazes me). Its been a memory filled 24 hours!

Spending the weekend with my in laws was wonderful. Leaving my in laws to move to Michigan, was not so wonderdul. I've said it before and I will probably say it 10 times again....I love my in laws. They are amazing people and I'm blessed to be a part of their family. Leaving them yesterday morning was one of the hardest goodbyes I've ever gone through. There were a lot of tears and hugs...but as Miss Pamela told me "Always follow your heart and where Jesus takes you. Even if its Alaska. I'm proud of you for doing that". And I can honestly say I am doing that. So needless to say, I’m glad the goodbye is over and am looking forward to next time we get to see them!

And the road trip began...Will, Maddux, myself, and a 6 x 12 ft Uhaul trailer. Snacks, good music, a very well behaved baby, and clear skies made for a great morning of driving...

First stop, Rock Hill, SC. My Uncle Chuck, Aunt Wendy, cousin Dani and her family live there. We got to stop for lunch with them. It was kind of them to let us relax for a while. Maddux got to play with his toys, we ate lunch, and talked. I love good family talk time. We love you guys!

Back on the road by 3:30 with 240 miles until our hotel...it was a long 240 miles. Charlotte traffic, a car accident causing a traffic jam, a hungry baby, dark mountain roads, a crying baby, crazy semi drivers, and a head ache....we were ready to call it a night. We FINALLY pulled in to the hotel at 9 pm - we all felt immediately better. We did some serious relaxing and sleeping. I even let  Maddux sleep next to me all night :-)

The weather today is iffy...we woke up at 5:30 to hit the road and get the heck out of the mountains! As I type this we are 30 miles south of Ohio. We will give it our best to make it in tonight...lets hope mother nature cooperates!!

We are coming Michigan!!!
