With our time here in North Carolina ending in the near future (fingers crossed) we decided to take a last minute New Years trip to Charlotte. Kevin's two study buddies moved there right after graduation and he has not seen them since. We watched the ball drop for the first time in 7 or 8 years (I'm still recovering). We went to see Avatar, it was sooo good. We went to Dave and Busters, and Ikea so fun.
Here are the kids enjoying the 5 hour car ride. They do so good in the car. Here is Up Town Charlotte, they just want to be different I guess.
The kids' favorite part of our road trips are the hotel stay, and with Kathi's discount we stay at some pretty swanky places, we had fun dancing behind the glass doors. The pictures didn't turn out very good though The kids love the pools also, no matter how cold or small, which this one was both. Warming up in the hot tub Kevin started this fun game, they would get in the hot tub to get all warm then run outside so their bodies would steam. You can't see it very good but she is very steamy Sexy Kade. Blackmail.
I like Christmas and all, but I just am so glad when it is over and you can take back all the stuff that the kids didn't like or that did not fit. So fun. The kids had a great time and got almost everything they wanted, especially when Santa surprised them and Mom with Rock Band 2.
Tanner made the one on the top, said it was Jacob from New Moon. Notice the six pack This is Santa and Mrs. Clause in a bikini. We stuck them in the freezer because those are what Kali wants to give Santa when he comes. Tan got his stitches out, and things look good for now. He will be on antibiotic for 4 weeks and then get checked again.
