Johnson Christmas Then Back on the Road!

This year our trip was a little short, so that we could get back to Massachusetts in time for Uncle Kenny's wedding. But luckily, we could still make it down to the Sherwood to celebrate Christmas with the Johnson's. But first, Maddy shot off some Stomp Rockets in the year. (Thanks Aunt Katie!)





And it was very important to wear our lucky UK apparel because they had a big game today….Louisville!



We got there before the game crowd filled the bar so that Audrey could have a drink with a friend.






The bar did fill up eventually and happily the Cats won!



After the game, and some ice cream….



...it was time for Maddy's favorite gift swap, Dirty Santa.



Unfortuately, poor Patrick had his gift stolen and had only one gift left on the table to choose, and it was a doozy! But at least a U of L flag does make good toilet paper.



Sunday morning came too quickly and we had to hit the road. The kids are such awesome road trippers now…all we have to do is throw a few donut holes into the back seat and they don't even make us stop for breakfast anymore.



Having a new friend in the backseat helped.



We typically take two days to get home, but we were making such great time we decided to push it (I think we were all excited about two nights in our own beds before heading to Plymouth for the wedding!) and made it to Winthrop by 10:30 at night. The kids were awesome! And I also have to thank gummy worms, DVDs on the laptop and Camper Van Beethoven for this amazing driving achievement!

Next up Uncle Kenny's wedding!
