Friday after Thanksgiving, Jack and I headed to Charleston, SC for a few days. His parents were still here from Thanksgiving so they stayed with Katelyn. I was very nervous to leave her because I didn't want the 2.5 days we were gone to be complete nightmare for John and Joann because Katelyn is so attached to me. Our plan of leaving before she got up in the morning worked out great. She was a doll for them!! What a relief and I was able to enjoy our time away more knowing that things back home were perfectly fine. When we got home on Sunday, she seemed kind of puzzled to see us. I was very excited to see her at the end of the trip, but Jack and I had a great, much needed time away!
At the SC Aquarium
USS Yorktown
It was decommissioned in 1975.
The spacious bathrooms!
Sleeping quarters
The carrier seemed like a maze...constantly going up and down these ladders.
CPT J in the briefing room.
Another Food Service Management class flashback!
Food cost per serving!!
On the deck
Fort Sumter
This is where the first shots of the Civil War took place.
The walls are 5 feet thick
This isn't the best picture but it's of dolphins.
We had to take a ferry ride to get to the fort and there were dolphins everywhere.
I was never quick enough to get them as they were jumping in the air but it was pretty cool!
The first time I'd seen dolphins out of captivity!
Flags at Ft. Sumter
USS Clamagore (Submarine)
This is the reason why Jack isn't in the Navy!
He had to duck his head the entire time we were in the carrier ship.
How would you like this to be your sleeping/living quarters for 6+ months?!?
Ohhh and you have to share that with another person!
No Thanks!
Ready for our nice dinner splurge!
It was wonderful to be able to spend some quality one on one time with each other but it was also nice to come back home to our beautiful baby girl!
I love my family so much and it feels so good to be together again!

The chairs actually looked pretty comfy!!
