Eventful day.

We headed out early, for Charlotte, this morning. Just short of our regular exit we hit construction. Three lanes out of four were closed. You can imagine the insanity! Twenty-eight minutes later we finally hit the first exit (about 1 1/2 miles up the road) and we were out-of-there! It was the Carowinds exit. lol Anyway, we took the path I remembered, which led us right through the middle of downtown Charlotte. My girls have not been through downtown Charlotte in a long time. In fact, I don't think Chloe as ever been through there. They were amazed by the buildings lurking over us! I guess the traffic was worth their excitement and John's.

We spent the day at my parents. We actually went up for a particular purpose. Dad is redoing his daffodil bed, so he was giving us the bulbs. We just had to dig them up. :) Dad, Chloe and I found so many I couldn't count them. They probably weigh close to ten pounds those. He also let me have about a dozen irises (white). Yeah! Now, I have to plant them here. Boo! LOL Next time I am hoping to get another butterfly bush too. My trunk was too full this trip.
