After our week long trip to GA, we made the long journey back to VA and arrived around 4:00pm on Christmas Eve. We (and by we, I mean Chris) decided to make the trip in two days and stop at one of the many battlefields along the East Coast. Best call ever made!!! Thank you, Chris!!!
We made our stop at Kings Mountain, SC which happens to be a Revolutionary War battlefield. We went through their museum (which was excellent) and then walked the grounds of the battlefield.
We headed on up the road a bit to Charlotte and stayed the night in a hotel. I forget how much the kids love to stay in a hotel. And it was even more awesome that we got to stay on the 11 floor!
Much to my surprise, everyone slept great and we made the rest of the trip to VA.
When we pulled into the drive way at 4:00, we had less than 40 minutes to change and be BACK IN THE CAR to head to church for the Christmas Eve service. I threw a frozen lasagna in the oven and prayed that it wouldn't burn while we were at church, brushed every ones hair, changed clothes, and off we when to church. It was a bit hectic, but the service was outstanding!!!!! So glad we were able to attend and hear the true message of Christmas, Jesus!!!!
Santa came and everyone was grateful and overwhelmed with his generosity! Hope that you all have had a blessed Christmas as well.
