Run to the Sun

This past weekend was amazing. I knew as soon as my dad told me that him and Mom were going to a classic car show in Myrtle Beach that I wanted to go. The only problem was Alex had to work that weekend and I didn't want to go by myself. Insert Jill. I knew she would go with me and went she did. We left right after school Friday afternoon and we were on our way by 3:30. We arrived in MB at the hotel where my parents were staying (we didn't stay on the beach) around 7:45. We unloaded the cars and met with my parents in their room. My parents had already eaten but they decided to ride along with Jill and me to grab a bite. After dinner it was an early bedtime since morning would come too soon.

Saturday morning we were up by 7:30 and ready to go by 8:30. We had every intention to run, but after talking with my parents and hearing how busy the car show was we decided to head there first thing. Mom called us on our way (8:45) and said the parking lot was already full and we would have to take the shuttle. I had never seen so many cars. There were over 2900 cars at the Run to the Sun show. We walked around and stayed there until about 12. We then went to Tanger and shopped some. The evening was spent hanging out with my parents for dinner. Saturday was St. Patrick's Day which is Dad's birthday. It was the first time in a few years that I actually got to see my dad on his birthday and meant so much to me to be with him and mom.

Sunday we ate breakfast and shopped a bit more before heading back to real life. It was a great weekend away and it was great to be able to spend such a special time with my family and a great friend. Now, without further ado, pictures!
