This weekend we traveled to Port Huron, Michigan for the annual celebration with the Smith and Darling Families. The plan was to drive up Friday and come home Sunday, but our plans were somewhat altered mid-day Friday. We stopped in Perrysburg just south of Toledo and Gavin thought it would be a good time to get car sick and toss his cookies all over himself and his car seat while we were on the off ramp! Poor little guy! We stopped at a McDonalds to clean him up and that when I noticed engine coolant all over the floor of the passenger side on my car! Turns out the heater core decided to leak but luckily we found it or we could have been stranded somewhere on the side of the road! I found a garage nearby and the helpful guys were able to arrange for the part to arrive Saturday morning and they had the work done by 3:00 on Saturday. Lucky for us Amanda's Dad came up from Bucyrus and took us back to spend the night at their house.
After getting the car on Saturday we made it to Port Huron by 6:00, only 27 hours later than we had expected! it was a fun but short visit as we played games, shared Christmas, and had excellent food and drink with our extended family. Sunday involved more visiting and the drive back to Columbus with no further cookie tossing from our little guy. Below are some highlights.
