'Twas the Night Before Road Trip


Well folks, it's almost time. In T minus four hours, we should be hitting the road. At least, that's our estimated departure time.

Daddy wanted us to be well-prepared for departure, so we actually packed Monday night. Therefore, we're using back-up shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, etc. until we get to our first hotel and into our suitcases. We wanted to see how it all fit into the back of Fowler's car. We have a snack bag and a book bag, pillows and sunglasses. Hopefully all is in order.

Being gone for two weeks comes with some extra chores. Tonight we ate what we could and cleared the refrigerator of perishables. No one wants to come home to smelly, rotten food. We've also made preparations for lawn care, bill paying, and dog sitting. (Many of you may know my grandmother has been "dog sitting" our cocker spaniel, Opie, for about four years now.) Right now, I'm trying to decide if I should sleep for two and half hours or not sleep at all. Gotta enjoy alone time while it's available, you know?

Stay tuned.

  1. Hannah,

    Just so you know, we are very jealous of your road trip (and no, I did not consult with Marcia about this as there is no need. I know she feels the same way!). Since y'all are taking the Xterra, I realize there's no need in inviting ourselves to tag along. :) However, I do hope you have a great trip and know that you will be missed at church!

    P.S. I'm serious about the jealous part (at least a little) and 100% kidding about tagging along! Enjoy the ride!
