hither and yon

gabe and I spent christmas vacation driving all over creation. we drove from Charlotte to Effingham to Upland and back to Charlotte. It took three days of driving, thousands of miles and numerous pits stops with the dog. A daunting task but definitely worth it. we spent the first week with my family in new hampshire....as always it was interesting...

And yes. we are all in our 20's and we are still wearing matching sweaters and pajamas. we like too keep tradition alive.

we also rock a mean matching sweater...

we had to leave New Hampshire in the early morning hours of decemeber 26th and Karen arrived around the time we had to leave....soooo what did we decide to do? have sibling christmas at 3am. wise choice. It was well worth it in my opinion. SO good to see the soon to be sister in law. and hey, we look pretty good for 3am.

after a fun filled week at my moms we headed off to Upland Indiana. we went from 7 crazy adult children to 7 wonderful nieces ad nephews! we had a blast with Gabe's siblings and his nieces and nephews LOVED gidget!

We also took the kids to a Taylor University Women's Basketball game! it was a ton of fun to be back on campus and the kids had fun too...

our break was CRAZY but well worth it. gidget survived and so did we. I am definitely ready for a vacation though....
