The Highlands


Last week Matthew, David and I set out on an adventure that only God knew how it would go. We decided to take our almost 4 month old on a five hour drive to the Highlands. With a 4 month old, you never know how things will turn out. Will the five hour drive take ten hours, will he scream the whole way, will he sleep, will he stay on schedule, will we be able to relax, etc.?


Well.... guess what!?!? He did WONDERFUL!!! I was so proud of my little man. We decided to leave at 6:30 on Wednesday night to make the drive. At 8:30 we stopped right outside of Atlanta to feed David and change his diaper. He then...SLEPT THE WHOLE WAY THERE!!! We arrived at 11! I was so happy.

We went with John and Kellie Clements and their two boys, Persson and Tilman and Michael and Claire Johnson and their little girl, Sidney. We stayed from Wednesday to Sunday and had an amazing time. During the trip we drove into town to walk the shops. The weather was amazing. We were able to watch the leaves on the trees literally change while we were there.

I was really so proud of David. He enjoyed watching the "big" kids play and he slept every morning until 7:30 or 8. On the ride back we stopped once and changed the diaper and fed him and then made it all the way home without a peep!

What a wonderful trip we had! Here are some pictures...ENJOY!
