Savannah

Audrey and I took off last Thursday on a major roadtrip (for us anyway!). When we lived in Savannah I met one of my closest friends, Sara. The two of us have kept in touch--we talk almost everyday! We have visited each other frequently since I moved from there. It was my turn to go see her so I packed my little 14 month old up and off we went!

I was very apprehensive about how Audrey would handle the trip (6 hours without stopping!). I worried and fretted about it for days! I shouldn't have-- she was perfect!! She didn't fuss or cry the ENTIRE way there or BACK!!! I did stop every hour and a half to two hours and let her get out and stretch her legs. We visited Targets, Walmarts, rest stops and convenience stores. We spent 45 minutes in one convenience store!! She played and played with the King Size Snickers and Reeses Cups! Whatever worked!! We sang and sang, pointed to everyone of our body parts, practiced our sign language, played peek-a-boo, looked at books, and watched hours of "The Wiggles"! I had so much fun with her!

We left on Thursday and came back Monday. While we were visiting Sara, we spent a lot of time relaxing and eating good food! Although I went to Savannah, I didn't go to see "Savannah". I went to see Sara and we didn't even go to the historic district except to drive through on our way to an arts and crafts show. It was a nice, restful weekend!

I didn't get any pictures of Sara at her house?? I'm not sure why! I guess I was having too much fun relaxing!


Sara's boyfriend, Matt, built a barn on some land he has. He is planning to "build Sara's house" next to the barn. For now, he lives in the upstairs portion of the barn. It is a traditional red barn with two lean-tos on each side.

Matt's a pumpkin farmer! He grew these pumpkins right beside the barn! I loved them!


The pumpkin farmer himself, Matt.

Decided against it!

Now it's Sara's turn to come here!
