Last Christmas in Virginia

We made the trip to Virginia one last time before Mimi and Papaw move south.  It was a bittersweet trip.  I had to say goodbye to my childhood home and memories.  

Grady drove us up there to get his hours

The kids and Josh got to meet Celeste

The last Christmas at our house

Sachi and Celeste didn't know what to make of each other.

We had to take home a plethora of weird stuff

The truck was full of plants

Papaw gave us the 4Runner.  He had to WD40 somethings.....

We made it home with half of mom's garden

 

Hunter Pace

 

Melissa asked Emma if she would be interested in competing in a Huter Pace race.  She was a little nervous but said yes.  It was quite the adventure.  The race lasted 2 hours in very cold temps.  I think they covered 8-10 miles.  A few weeks after the race, they found out that they came in 1st place!

Getting ready to ride

It was a very long day
