The Sooys Go to Charleston

We took the Sooy Babies on a nice little trip to Charleston, South Carolina for some history, sightseeing, visiting, and Uncle Peter's wedding! The trip started verrrry early on Wednesday morning - we left our house a little after 3am! We were a little nervous about how the drive would go since Sean did not fall asleep until we were close to Baltimore!!

But after a nice long nap, both kids were ready to get up and out of the car! Luckily there was a McDonald's near the North Carolina border. After some hot cakes and a romp through the Play Place, the kids were ready to hit the road again...

And more napping!

We passed through South of the Border!

We stopped for the night in Santee, South Carolina and met up at the same hotel with Grummy, Pop Pop, Mama Jackie and Pop Pop Pop. The kids were excited to swim in the hotel's pool, watch a bunch of TV, and eat breakfast the next morning with their grandparents. The next morning, after a short drive, we arrived in Charleston. We enjoyed spending the next coupld of days walking around the city, seeing Fort Sumter, visiting a plantation, hanging out with family, eating good food, and sipping on sweet tea.

And did I mention we went to a wedding?  (More on that in another post!)

And on the way home, we stopped to visit Mommy's Aunt Pat and Uncle Dannie for some snacks and a banjo lesson for Sean :-)
