Well that was fun.

Ok, I'm just kidding. We left yesterday morning at 6:30 to drive from Aurora, Illinois to Bluffton/Hilton Head, South Carolina. Through Illinois - check. Indiana - check. Kentucky - check. Tennessee - check. North Carolina - check. South Carolina - check. I drove for 3.5 hours of the 15 hour trip and it was through the Appalachian Mountains and was raining the entire time. Not fun. But we did make it here and really did have a great trip. We have a Garmin and one of the things it shows in your "trip history." We only stopped for 37 minutes the entire way here! Not too bad if you ask me. We had 2 drive-though stops for lunch and dinner and then 2 other stops for a bathroom break. Griffin did great. I had no idea Legos in the car would be such a great success. He played with those for hours. It was about 20 degrees when we left Illinois and when we arrived in SC it was 65 degrees. We'll take it!

This morning we had a great game of Boccie Ball. If you don't know what that is, check out the link. It's a great game regardless of age/skill level. We had three teams and after about 30/45 minutes it was a three way tie 8-8-8. We decided that was a good way to end it. Then we hit the croquet court of a little croquet. It was so nice to be outside without even a coat on! I have some pictures I'll have to add later.
