The Halbrooks were up at 5am to head out at 7am. We had the van packed and got the kids things ready in the van the night before so all we had to do was get ready and head out! This plan worked well for us this year and the kids loved their surprises waiting for them in the van (new cups and a new movie, Despicable Me).
We decided to take our route through Knoxville, TN so that we could meet the latest addition to the Clagg Family. It was so nice to catch up with my college friends and get to spend time with their amazing kids! (sorry we didn’t get any pics of you, Trent!)
We drove for about 6 more hours and stopped for dinner and did a little shopping. It ended up being a two hour stop. 🙂 Then, we headed to Southport, NC to stay the night. The kids got new pjs as another one of their surprises. 🙂
