Labor Day trip to W. Va.

Well it had been about 10yrs since I've been down to see the Richmond side of the family. We were able to get everyone together to go down this year for the Pack Family reunion on Labor Day. We all had a good time, but ended up leaving early because Sara's kids were not sleeping well and were cranky.

I was surprised how well the drive down and back went. Not too many problems or whining. We just might be able to make a road trip again.

Of course my kids know no stranger and quickly made friends. Even had someone ask (jokingly)where they were adopted from because no child of mine would be that social. Belle spent her time playing with cousins Torre and Ciara and Ethan spent most of his time just playing with Brody. Although Ethan did come up to me during the reunion and asked if he could go play with the big kids. I'm always amazed at how well my kids are in new situations. They'll just go off and make friends with someone.
