Our trip to Stuart

At 4 pm on a Thursday we left for Stuart; we arrived at 1 a.m. The idea was to not waste a whole day driving and also that if we drove mainly at night, the kids would sleep the majority of the way. It worked wonderfully; I think we may do all of our trips like this from now on. The reason for the trip at the end of July was for Rob's 20 year high school reunion. This is the class of 1989 ... I was in sixth grade. Ha! We stayed at the sight of the reunion in a cottage (the blue one below), one of 32. Oma and Opa babysat through the night for us. Of course Wade (who had been sleeping through the night) must have known I was not there and got Oma up every 2 hours. She is a trooper and decided to invite her friend Julie over the next night to help out.
We had a blast! With family and with friends, this was the most fun we have had in a long time!! I am sad that we will not be down there to see them again until the holidays but Christa and Ernie are already making plans to come visit us which is great.
