Courtney was planning to make the trip to North Carolina on his own to pick up the keys to the house, but last minute, the kiddos and I decided to go with. I was very back and forth about going, but so glad we did.
We had to stay in a motel for a couple nights, which worked out okay, because Courtney had to do some things at work, so at least the kids and I could have breakfast and watch some Mickey Mouse while he did that.
When Courtney was done doing what he needed to, he would came back to pick us up and do some exploring. It got me even more excited about moving there after looking at everything they have there. Good shopping areas (IKEA), great restaurants, and there is so much to do. I'm looking forward to exploring Charlotte a lot more once we finally make the move!
We even made an impromptu stop at the Nascar Hall of Fame! I think I'm just excited to have all the NASCAR stuff around us. And I really can't wait to take the kids to an actual race. The hall of fame was so cool to see. I wish we could have read everything there was there, but the kiddos wouldn't allow that... haha but either way, it was a very fun time and the kids had fun seeing all the cars, especially the #88 car.

It was really great staying at the house for the first night all together. We may not of had anything, but we made the best of it. The kids had a lot of fun exploring the house and figuring out what toys were going where.
And it was nice for me to actually see the house in person because I had only seen it in a video that Courtney took while he toured the home. Now, I could really imagine where things would go and what we would need to get to make it really feel like home!
