.FL Christmas part1.

So the day after Christmas Andrew was set to preach at the Summit for the 2 morning services, then we were going to hit the road headed south for a few days... Well the glorious snow decided to arrive over night and this is what we woke up to...Yep, thats right 7inches of snow and it was still coming down! So the Summit services were canceled and we loaded up and hit the road.... CRAZINESS...Living out in the country the roads were TERRIBLE, it took us 2 hours to get to I-95 (normally would have taken about 50mins.). The Lord totally put a hedge of protection around us and Andrew did great driving with the help of his copilot, Lucy! We made it to FL in about 9 1/2 hours which wasn't terrible considering the weather! HattieJo did an amazing job!! Thanks to some AMAZING friends, who gave her a DVD player for Christmas, she was quite entertained.When we arrived to Andrew's parents house, we had HJ in her "big sister" shirt. They came out the door and immediately saw the shirt and we so excited, HJ just started clapping her hands in excitement. After we ate a delicious soup dinner, we went to Andrew's sisters house to share the news with them. It was so great to see TheCollinsFive! Then we came back to Gigi and Poppa's house to open some gifts before bedtime!
*I know HJ's head is cut off in one of these pictures, but I was trying to get the AWESOME quilt that Gigi had made for HJ with 12 of her onesies that were from her 1st year of life, and the fabric around the onesies is the sock monkey fabric that her 1year old dress was made from!*
