Summer Vacation!



We just got back from a great week in Hilton Head. Every other year we take a family vacation with my parents, sisters, spouses and children. It was 12 of us in total and we had too much fun. We spent the week lounging by the pool or playing on the beach. My brother in law Nathan was gracious enough to use his grill master skills to keep us all fed. The kids were in heaven playing in the water all day and getting lots of attention doing it.

The 14 hour car ride there was pretty good, a little tougher on the way back but the kids did really well. The best story of the week happened on our way home. We stopped at the Mountain View Truck Stop for gas and a bathroom break. Unfortunately, there was only one bathroom and a line was forming fast. Macy and my Mom went in first. As they came out Macy ran right up to me and yelled, "Mommy, it's kind of funky in there!" I thought I was going to fall over! We were all howling after that, even some stranger who was waiting in line! By the way, she was right!!
















About us


We are the White family: Chad, Teresa, Macy and Ben. We are so excited to have this opportunity to live, laugh and love with all of you. Hopefully, this blog will help us keep a little better connected with our friends and family we don't get to see often enough.

A little background on us, Chad and I have been married for 9 years. We are blessed with two of the most spirited, precious children ever in Macy (almost 4) and Ben (almost 2). Chad and I both work, so when we have free time it is most always with our kids and when possible, other family. We also love to do home projects, we haven't figured out how to get the kids involved in those yet. Chad also has the whole family join him in rooting for the Cubs, the Irish and the Colts. The kids can even sing the Go Cubbies go song!
Again, a big welcome to everyone who visits us here. We invite all of you to send comments so we can know what's going on with all of you.
