Our visit to UVA

Our friends, Chris and Susan currently live in Charlottesville, VA.
Chris is finishing up his P.H.D- WAHOOO!!!!
and has already accepted a job at Florida State in the Econ department- BOOOO!!!! (We are happy for you just sad you are moving- and I expect you to wear Clemson stuff all over FSU!)  We decided to head down last Saturday to visit them as it might be our only chance to see them before they head to Florida.  This being our first day trip with Collin I was a little nervous but figured everything would go well and if he got fussy we would just come home.


We got on the road after feeding Collin around 10:15am.  I decided to sit in the back with Collin in hopes to keep him up a little which worked well- he was up for about 45 minutes and then slept the rest of the way. Clemson was also in the car with us- talk about a full car load!


When we got there- Collin was due to feed- so luckily Chris and Susan were ready to lend a helping hand. 





We then headed out to a local Pub/Brewery called Devils Backbone Brewing Company.
We were all starving and they had hard cider to drink so I was in heaven.
Chris of course showed Collin how to use sharp objects!
Thank you very much =0)



After lunch we headed to Susan's favorite Cidery, Bold Rock.
Susan shares my love for hard Cider!
We did a Cider tasting- Baby in tow of course!
Oh how I love cider!!!
We treated ourselves to 2 6packs of cider which are not in our fridge for me.
Bold Rock should be carried soon in Wegmans which has me totally excited as I love supporting local companies!
Totally love how the Wubba is in Chris' mouth!

We headed back to their house to feed Collin again and then got on the road to head back.
We got home about 8:30 and it was 9:30 before we put Collin in bed which was a little late but that is life.  He slept till 6am the next morning, and then went back down till 9 after feeding him. 
I will be honest in stating- WE HAVE THE BEST BABY EVER!
He was great and just went everywhere with us! 
He really was only fussy when he was hungry which I came prepared with extra bottles just in case!   

Thanks to Susan and Clapp for having us.
We had a blast.
