Cross Country Numbers


4- times David threw-up the morning we were to leave Texas.
102- degree of Jon's fever that same morning.
1- pediatrician we saw before we left Texas, we miss Dr. Deitchman!
3- hours we were behind when we finally left, armed with anti-nausea medicine and motrin.
2- side of the road stops for Jon, poor guy was burning up and MAD about being in his seat.
1- AWESOME God moment in Longview, TX. We actually heard Myrtle Beach Days playing over the loud speaker in a random KFC/TACO BELL restaurant. We had a smile on our faces the rest of the day.
1- stop in Jackson, Mississippi for an overnight stay .
Thousands- of beautiful magnolia trees between LA and SC... it was a welcoming sight.
2-stops made on the second day of travel from Mississippi to Georgia. That's right, 9 hours of driving and only 2 stops!
2- shoes that came flying into the front seat at end of said 9 hours on day two. David was yelling "stop driving mom!" from the back seat.
5- grateful people to have survived the trip. We are excited about the start of Wellspring Church in Myrtle Beach, SC!

*The picture above was taken over 2 months ago when we started day 2 of driving and my kiddos have grown so much... that is another post in the works.
