Trip South - Part 1

We left early Wednesday morning to drive down to North Carolina to be with Johanna's family for the Holidays. It took just over 14 hours to go the 800 miles. The kids both did great considering they were confined to the car for that long. Thursday we had dinner with everyone. Jack H. came thursday afternoon through saturday evening. Friday Jack, Paxton and I went to a park for a couple of hours to burn off some energy while some of the ladies went shopping. Friday night some folks came over and we had fun doing some karaoke and visiting. On Saturday some of us went to Old Salem which is a historical town not to far from Johanna's folks. It was neat to walk around and check that out. Paxton has had a lot of fun playing Wii every chance he gets since we have been here. We will be down here until Saturday when it will be time to head back home and get back in the groove of work again.
