We wanted to wait until Jonathan was old enough to travel to take our first big trip. After all his check-ups we decided to go to North Carolina with my parents to their rental houses and enjoy a little time-a-way. 
Jonathan did great in the car for 12 hours (we spread it out over 2 days) and we settled in for a couple of weeks!! 
While there Jonathan experienced some huge milestones!! He rolled over for the first time, started holding his head up all by himself,
smiling, laughing, realizing that he has hands, and holding toys with those hands!!! He also started wanting to stand up while we held him! Such a big boy!!
Well, after a couple of weeks we had to start getting ready to home. However, the day we were scheduled to leave much to our amazement we woke up to a white world and our trip was delayed a few hours while we tried to figure out how we were going to get down off of the mountain!!! With lots of prayers and very tense moments we did finally make it down safely!!!

What a wonderful trip for Jonathan to get to see 2 season changes (fall leaves & winter snow) in one trip!!! We also got to see 3 bears on our property that hung around for several days! 
And we decided to cut down our Christmas tree and bring it back with us!! Who can pass up live Christmas trees from North Carolina and, might I add, only $25.00!!!
