December 27, 2012: on the road again
The view of the Appalachians was incredible. It had snowed, and the trees were covered in ice. This was the best picture I could take out of the window of the car, but it's not too bad.

December 25, 2012: Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas, everyone! Like I said, they are a little over zealous in NC. These were some of Meg and Kyle's neighbors riding their horse and buggy around the subdivision. I loved it.
December 24, 2012: Christmas Eve Disc Golf
Taking advantage of the good weather, Dad, Kyle, and I decided to play disc golf. Meg walked around with us and tried to get Artie to come out a little sooner. She is due Jan. 8 but would love for him to come earlier. My goal was to make par on at least one hole, and I finally did on the last one. That was after I threw my disc into a briar patch and bloodied my arms and legs retrieving it.
December 23, 2012: Christmas craze
After the long drive, we made it to NC. We quickly realized it wasn't going to be a white Christmas- it was over 50 degrees outside. The lack of snow doesn't stop the NC natives from being over zealous with their Christmas decor. I think it makes them over compensate. Those huge blow up decorations are a big fad. This house had over 30 of them including an igloo cannon, a giraffe Santa, and a snowman hunter. The funny thing is that in the morning, they all look like they have been slaughtered because all of the air is let out of them and they are laying on the ground.
December 22, 2012: Who's Left?
I challenged Jesse to a 51 game series of Who's Left (which is the slightly less white male dominated version of Guess Who.) Loser buys the winner appetizers and drinks when we get back to Michigan. At the end of the car ride, I lead 22-21. We'll finish on the way home. I can already taste my free sangria.
December 21, 2012: Sleeping Beaut
Tomorrow morning we begin our 16 hour car ride to visit Meg and Kyle. I am pretty sure I just told Jesse to get all her gas out tonight before we start the ride. Obviously she thinks her stink is amusing :)
