This weekend we packed up the minivan and headed South. I've been busy tending to all the sickies in the house, pack, work and fulfill my housewife-mommy duties that I've neglected the blog. I have so much to talk about and a few pictures to post but right now I'm in the comfort of a Missouri Comfort Inn.
Our trip to Texas started this morning at 4:45 am-fourty five minutes later than planned but no problem, other than the rain. We woke up the kids, bundled them up from the cold and wind and buckled them in the car. Suave got us started by saying, "Let's hit the road!" and Tim started us off with a prayer. We were hopeful that the kids would snooze but, no luck, they stayed awake until our first Starbucks stop at 6.
Speaking of Starbucks...when did their breakfast items get soooo yummy!?! We all shared some feta, mushroom thing that I am craving again.
So, again we headed west, out of Illinois. A few stops here (McDonald's) and there (Wal-Mart) and a couple of movies (James and the Giant Peach, VeggieTales) later and we arrived in Springfield. The kids were eager to swim and while they were at the pool with daddy, I did a little cardio in the gym.
And now, everyone is asleep. Hubby next to me, Bea in the other bed and Suave in his favorite sleeping spot, the floor.
Tomorrow we arrive in Dallas. I'll tell you all about it...
