Road Trip

This past weekend Chris and I took our first road trip back to VA. We finally hit the road a little after 6pm and had to stop by Gaffney first :-) I can't ever pass by Gaffney without doing some shopping! By the time we made it to Chris's house in Chesapeake it was close to 2am! On Saturday morning we met with the realtor to review some changes Chris was making and then we got back in the car and headed to Williamsburg. Ever since I had started visiting Chris in VA, he always promised one day we could go Williamsburg. Colonial Williamsburg is about a 45 minute drive from his house. They also had some great outlets that we spent a couple of hours at. Although Chris isn't much of a shopper, he is still a great sport about it. I'm so lucky! Since Yankee Candle has a special place in my heart, he took me to a huge store there in Williamsburg. One of the pictures above was in the Christmas section of the store and it was actually snowing. The lady that took the picture asked if we were on our honeymoon. Honeymoon? Wow...to think that is only 9 months away. Fun stuff!

Sunday morning we did a few last minutes touch-ups to the house and then loaded up. Chris was able to pack a few more of his clothes and bring home some movies he had boxed up. Hopefully with the warmer weather, real estate activity will be improving. We have a landscaper coming out next week to help with the curb appeal. I'll try to remember to take pictures next time we go back, which we both hope will be for the closing.

We have painted a room together and survived a road trip...2 tests we have PASSED!
