Carolina Love

What a whirlwind these past few days have been! On Tuesday, Brian called me at work and said that we really needed to go to North Carolina...and he wanted to leave in the morning. As much of a planner as I am, I was a little worried about making everything work out with jobs, travel, money, etc. but I knew that this is what we needed to do and that God would provide and work out the details...which He sure did!!

What a blessing the trip was in so many different ways! We left Orlando at 12 am (midnight) early Wednesday morning so we could get there in time for Brian's brother Landry's football game at 4pm. We rolled into Morganton, North Carolina around 10am and went straight to B's sister Kayla's house to get some much needed sleep! We took along little Forrest as our travel buddy. Here is a shot with Forrest and B on the way there.




We got to do so many things and see soo many people while we were there! We got to spend lots of time with his dad which was wonderful! We went to 3 football games too which Brian was excited about! Also we got to spend some quality time with our little nephew Malachi! He is 1 and a half and I just love him to pieces! I already miss him like crazy!

It's so hard to live away from family...both Brian's (10.5 hours away) and mine (18+ hours away) but it does make the time you get to spend together that much sweeter and it does make you depend more on God to sustain you!

We left Sunday for our long drive home...it always is slower going home...

All in all, it was a great trip...a time with Brian's family, a chance for Brian and I to get away together (which doesn't seem to happen often), a taste of fall weather, a chance to relax and a time spent in Carolina Love :)

 I just thought I would throw in these last picture I took just for laughs...we saw some of the strangest, most ghetto cars I have ever seen on our trip...
