The trip here was thankfully very uneventful. Other than the guy in North Carolina that almost killed us because I wasn't going fast enough for him in the fast lane. It didn't seem to bother him that there was no other lane for me to move into at that point. He just kept flashing those lights (which by the way, we don't do in Alabama-culture shock before I even got here) and tailgating-which I totally can't stand.
Either way, uneventful or not, 12 hours of driving is a LONG way. Every time we would cross a state line I would shot for joy-surprised I didn't bruise my mom hitting her out of excitement :)
Christmas in Virginia was great. Christmas day was really quiet, but the rest of the week we got out and did a little sightseeing.

I don't know how you know when there's water everywhere!!

Since my mom left its been pretty quiet. Although I did take a trip over the water and managed to see way more of the area on the way home than I planned to. . .
