We are leaving for St. Louis today. Because it’s today already. Last year when we traveled across the country, I would write offline in Notepad and date and time stamp all my entries. I think I will do that this time and see what happens along the way. We always have such a good time in the car on road trips together, only this time the kids won’t have thier own DVD player to keep them entertained. I am sure the trip home will be a different story with all the things they are sure that Santa is going to bring them. I hope that they will sleep and it will be quiet and then Jon and I can sing to our favorite songs because we both have our OWN zen.
I am looking forward to seeing my Mother, sister, and Dad. It has been over a year and a half since we have seen Mom. I hope she is feeling better and prepared for all the kids to be in her face and loving on her and Dad, and Leslie too.
I guess we should head to bed, we have a long day ahead of us. I stayed up until 4:20 or so yesterday doing Christmas cards and wrapping presents. Tonight I even made dinner AND chocolate chip cookies. I rock.
