Oh Savannah

 A few weeks ago, we traveled to Savannah to drop off our daughter for college.  Her school is on the quarter system, so she starts school in September and ends in June.  It is a long drive to Savannah, but a stop at Buc-ees helps!  


Savannah is such a beautiful town.  I love riding down the streets seeing all the trees with moss hanging over, creating such a pretty view.

We were thankful to be there to help get her all settled in her new place.  I mentioned a few weeks ago that the new dorm building she was assinged to was not going to be ready in time for the opening of school.  The school decided to lease a new apartment buidling for the students who were assinged to the dorm building that wasn't ready.  So it was fun to move my daughter into a new apartment building and now she has her own room, bathroom, full kitchen and a washer/dryer in the unit.  
Here I am with my daughter, her roommate, who is from New Jersey, and her mom.  We are so thankful she has such a sweet roommate and love her family too!

No trip to Savannah would be complete without a trp to Blick, the local art store.
Or a trip to Walmart for necessities, including groceries.

In one of the student buildings on campus, we found these Skeeball machines, which were free.  I could have stayed here a little longer and played some more!

We also took an afternoon to go to the beach.  It was so relaxing.

It was a good, but short trip.  There were 2 days of driving and 2 days there.  

It won't be long and she will be home for Thanksgiving with as fast as time is going!

College Visit

Hi!  We took a weekend road trip, so I was off from blogging Monday.  But today, here are pictures from our weekend trip, which consisted of our first college visit!  My oldest will graduate in May, so we are at that time of life.  How can this be?  
This picture seems like yesterday.  She looks college ready :).

Here we go for our tour.... 



It was such a pretty campus and we were all impressed.
I am excited for her.  I am not excited for the college goodbyes, but it is what we've been training for 18 years. 
While we were in town, we saw another friend who goes to college nearby. 
We also ate at one of my favorite restaurants. We stayed with some friends and and also got to see some other friends on our drive home, so it is fun to have people in different places we visit.

Join us tomorrow for our What's Up Wednesday!
