Christmas Vacation!

Christmas vacation came and went too quickly! Michael went on his first BIG road trip to Boone, NC to spend the holiday with my parents and brother. We decided it might be in our best interest to cut the trip in half. Thank goodness we did! We left Monday night, stayed in Orangeburg, SC, then completed our drive the following morning. What should have taken 9 hours... took around 12? Michael has to eat ;) He is such a wonderful little traveler!! We stopped at Winthrop, where I attended college, and hit up the bookstore to purchase some WU gear for the little guy :)
We got to Boone on Tuesday afternoon! Michael and I relaxed while Daddy and Grandma hit up the grocery store since those two were our chefs for the weekend. Grandpa, Mommy and Uncle Ry Ry DO NOT cook. We are dangerous in the kitchen :)

Most of vacation was just filled with relaxation. Grandma kept Michael for 3 nights so that Mike and I could get some sleep. He slept through the night 2 of those 3. Grandma didn't want the little guy to go. She wanted to keep him for another week then drop him back off to us on her way back to Sarasota.


Christmas was wonderful. Michael made out well! New car seat... Priori Maxo Cozi... AMAZING! Also a new high chair along with mommy's favorites... baby Osh Kosh and Ralph Lauren outfits. He got some nifty toys from MOMA, museum of modern art in Manhattan.

Michael also got to visit Beech Mtn, but unfortunately, there was no snow this Xmas. Def next year when he visits Colorado! Most of his time in NC was with Grandma. He loves her!!

Grandpa and Uncle Ry played with him all week as well. Michael especially like to watch my dad walk around... he is so tall!


Of course we had to get him a little Appalachian State gear as well.
The trip back was better than the trip up. Better timed around Michael's feedings and naps. Once we were back, I had to return to work, but daddy spend the whole week with Michael, having many boy days. Lots of football to watch :)
Love to all!
