Christmas vacation

Wes, Katherine, Sebastian, and I piled into our Ford minivan on Christmas Eve at 8PM to begin our drive to Grand Rapids, Michigan to visit with family. We arrived safely in Grand Rapids around 3PM Christmas Day. We spent a week having great fun and celebrating Christmas together as a family. We began our trip home New Year's Day with several stops along the way.

New Year's Day we drove to Cleveland and then onto Smithville, Ohio to see more family. On Wednesday, January 3rd, we stopped in Deatsville, Kentucky to see some friends and then spent the night in a hotel somewhere around Jackson, Tennessee. Thursday brought another long day as we decided to do some sight seeing and playing in Memphis before meeting my sister in Little Rock, Arkansas. We finally arrived home at 11:45PM Thursday, January 4th.

We traveled through nine states in eleven days and drove around three thousand miles!

We had a incredible time with family, and we are grateful to those who helped make this wonderful vacation possible.
