We did make it to Raleigh yesterday, despite lots of snow and sleet, especially on our way home. We had pizza at 2 Guys on Hillsborough Rd (right by NC State, for you non-wolfpack fans) and then went to Krispy Kreme and ate donuts. Some of the highlights:
-Hearing Gray asking, "Ah we in Wah-wee?" (Are we in Raleigh) was definitely a highlight.
-Gray fell out of the booth in his booster seat at the restaurant. He wasn't hurt, but of course had very sad, dramatic tears.
-While we ate, Gray managed to put 4 or 5 crayons in his cup through the straw hole when we weren't looking. I also caught him sticking a crayon in his nose.
-When we got ready to leave, Gray did a dramatic face plant on the restaurant floor and cried his heart out. Why? Because we told him we were going to put on his coat. Horrible parents, I know! Thankfully, we were the only customers so only the workers witnessed his display.
-We got turned around trying to get to Krispy Kreme for the 2nd year in a row of this 2nd annual trip! Guess we should add riding around Raleigh looking for donuts as part of the tradition. Matt did a great job safely driving us in the winter mess though!
-Gray picked the red striped donut at Krispy Kreme, and as you can see below, he was absolutely covered in bright red food coloring...and loving every minute!
-Joshua did a great job at both places and has gotten really easy and fun to take out.
-We helped a guy stuck in the snow get back on the road on our way home.
-All in all, it was a fun trip and we'll be excited to do it again next year!

I want to make the trip with y'all next year!
whoa those kids look crazy in those pictures. Also, it looks like you're eating in a restroom. hahaha.
By the way, have you nailed down any kids' names yet??
We discussed the list the other day that we had made at Thanksgiving, but I don't think we're going to be sure until we see the baby....you know what I mean (of course we can't be sure til we know it's girl or boy, but we don't have a for sure girl name or for sure boy name yet)
