Daniel used 4 days of his unused baby leave so we could make the trek to his hometown of Troy, North Carolina. It seems rare that we get to use any leave to be alone. We are always traveling to see some family member. One of these days, I will put my foot down and we will use leave days to enjoy each other's company in our own home with our baby boy!
However, we did enjoy the time in Troy. Foster wasn't super happy about the tail end of the trip, but what mobile, busy baby wants to be strapped in the car for 7 hours??? He was great overall, just ready to get out at the end of the trip! But of course, so was I! We spent the weekend with Daniel's parents. Debbie even threw a Mary Kay party with many of her lady friends. Such Fun! If you haven't had your lady friends over in a while, you should and throw in a Mary Kay makeover to boot! Saturday we helped Daniel's grandparents around the house; not that they will allow us to do much for them! Daniel's sister, her boyfriend and their baby boy came for a while too. His Aunts and Uncles also came by to visit us and of course spend time with the cutest baby who ever lived, Foster! Daniel got to enjoy his Grandmother's cooking and baking and of course he ate his fair share of NC barbecue-YUCK! We even had to take some home for the freezer. Grant and Sabrina swung by with the kids as did Devon and the boys. All in all it was a nice weekend getaway...save the unpacking once we got home! As always Welli and Chloe traveled like champs. It is amazing how much stuff you need to travel with both baby and dogs!
