On the Road





We are on the road!!!! We were able to leave New York, Thursday!!! We stayed our first night in Delaware. Spent all day Friday in Washington, D.C and spent the night in Arlington. We drove all day today and are currently in Knoxville, TN. Tomorrow we will drive to Pelham, AL, to stay two days with Scooters sister. The kids are excited to get to spend some time out of the car running and playing with their cousins. Tuesday we plan to leave for Paw-Paw's house in Castor, LA. Thursday we will be home!!!!!


So far the trip has been very easy. We loved D.C and are very glad we made the stop. This is such beautiful country to drive through and the weather has been perfect. I am amazed that after 3 days in the car the kids are still getting along well and not complaining a lot. We can't wait to get home but want to make the most of our trip. See you all soon!!

Shipping out!!!

It is almost time!! I can't believe how fast four months can fly by. We will be leaving to come home soon. We decided to ship all our things home instead of hauling them. So... we packed last weekend and dropped everything that won't fit into our suitcases at fed-ex yesterday. Our house seems so empty now. No games, toys, books, junk!! I realize I have way to much stuff. I have promised Scooter that the first month I am home will be spent decluttering and we will have one huge garage sale at the end of June. So hold me to it!

It looks like we will be able to leave a day or two early. Right now the plan is to leave here Friday morning. We should get to Washington D.C. by mid-afternoon. We will spend what is left of the day and Saturday site seeing. I can't wait!!
