Yes friends, the Rowan's are hitting the road again! Tomorrow after a class movie field trip we will be heading to Louisville to visit Derek's dad in the burn unit at University of Louisville Hospital. It is about a 12 hour drive for us, and hopefully Derek will get to spend some time with his dad and family. Last Thursday his dad was involved in a horrible kerosene accident, and received burns over 65% of his body. Today we received a call asking Derek to come up because his dad is not doing well at all. He has a raging infection, unstable vitals, and the original grafts have not taken. 
We will stay at the Galt House Hotel which is actually on the Ohio River. It is located right near the hospital and right in the middle of the downtown area. We will stay until Wednesday when we will head back down to Franklin and see my family there for a few days. Depending on how Derek's dad does, we may head back to Louisville Saturday, or we will head home and Derek will just fly back if he needs to the next weekend!
Here are two quick pictures from Christmas morning! We did have a great holiday with family and friends!
Today when we got up, we both started taking down and putting up our Christmas stuff- We started that last year, and we really like having the house ready for the new year! There is something to be said about "Boxing Day". It works out great now that we will be gone for the next week!
As we take off on yet another long journey, we are excited to finally get to visit with Derek's family and friends in Louisville. More pictures from the road as we get to encounter great snow and more C-O-L-D weather (a stark difference from our balmy 80 degrees here!)
