Visit the NC Baldwin's

Now that Greg, Alia and the kids live close by we decided to take advantage of the kids 4 day weekend.  I loaded everyone and all our things into the suburban, dropped off "Boomer" then went to get Chris at the office.  The kids watched movies since it was dark and Eagan was asking "Are we there yet?" and we said no and just laughed.  At Brunswick, Georgia we found a Marriott and stayed the night.

After our free breakfast, which they lost money on, we headed out.  They read, napped, watch movies and ate a ton more but we all very good.  I heard about a flipped car on the highway so followed the line of 18 wheelers and went thru cotton country.  Chris pulled over so I could grab some off the road for a science lesson on cotton and what is can do.  A quick stop at McDonald's to play and eat then we got to their house.  Greg was still at work so the kids played until dinner.   They really enjoyed each other.  Sienna was counting the days and informed everyone that morning "COUSINS" were coming.  We all played musical beds to accommodate everyone.

Saturday Greg made waffles, which were yummy, and we all got ready to go to the hands on museum.  They enjoyed all of it and stayed together best as they could as a group.  We ate lunch at the cafe at a very small table but we managed they played outside for 30 minutes or so in the 30 degrees +-.  Home for rest time, not long lasting but needed for all.  The kids played inside and the big boys love to be outside so Chris and Greg tag teamed them out there.  At dinner Dayne showed Sienna his loose tooth then after we cleaned up it fell out.  And yes the Fairy found him in NC.  The adults had homemade french bread, made by Alia and Greg made lasagna, YUM.  A little Lion King was in order for the night to relax before bed.

Sunday morning everyone was up and ready to go to IHOP.  All 10 of us headed out and enjoyed a yummy and quiet breakfast.  We love to bowl so we took the others.  Greg and Alia never bowled with the kids so it was new to them.  What they didn't expect was all the trash talk that we and the kids do with each other.

Felicia fell asleep on the way home and we decided to pack up the gang and headed home.  We were all tired but the kids do great on road trips.  A dvd and computer are saviors while in the car.  Home happened at 1:30 am thanks Chris.

Greg, Alia, Sienna and Wyeth, thanks so much we had a blast.
