All Our Bags Are Packed...

We're ready to go...We're leaving in the morning to take a trip to Branson, Mo. Bob and I met in Branson, and Jack's middle name is Branson. See the connection? Galveston is still recovering and we don't have the time for a trip to Chi-town, so we're road tripping to Branson. We're planning to hit the Titanic museum (that's mine), the Wax museum (for old times sake, Bob and I made out in the Wizard of Oz corner just shy of 9 years ago), the Hollywood museum and anything else fun we can find. Silver Dollar City opens on Thu and Bob has a breakfast meeting that day so we can't stick around for that.

The kids are as excited as if it were Christmas Eve. They have packed everything they can fit into their little bags. Now I have to unpack all of it and put it all away, then repack it with their clothes. Then, when we get to the hotel, they'll open the bags and be all mad that I took their good stuff out. They have counted down to this, they have their little pocket calendars and they have checked off the days.

I'm excited. It's the kids first trip and our first in a very long time. The car is maintenanced, and the house is all ready to show while we're gone. The bonus of that is that when we come home, our house will be in perfect condition. I looooove that.

Wish us luck!
