The Countdown

Well, plans are all taken care of. Tomorrow before we go to bed, everything is to be packed in our bags. Then, Wednesday morning it will all go into the car and we will leave right after work. I'm still really nervous about this big of a trip but not near as much as I was!
However, I am a little worried about the road conditions of the pass. It was closed less than a week ago because of the snow! I suppose if it is closed, we can crash at my cousin's house in Tacoma!
Speaking of which, my aunt who lives in Oregon just happens to be going to Seattle/Tacoma on the 19th to spend the weekend with her daughter & grandkids. So we're going to meet for lunch after our flight gets in! I'm so excited! She's like my other grandma. When we were little my mom's parents lived in KS so I really didn't know them, but my aunt J kind of took that place for us. Although I have other aunts & uncles that live in OR whom I love, aunt J is the bestest. Ever.

You Kick Ass!

So, I always knew that it takes a special kind of person the be in the military, but I never realized how special of a person it takes to make a military wife. Woman, I do not know how you do it!!!
In the last two weeks...Faith puked. The husband had a fever, chills, puked. Dominic has been teething, wheezing, coughing etc. Faith then puked again. Then, I was sick. The kids are still battling pretty nasy coughs. My kids/family do not get sick often. We're very very lucky. There were two adults and two kids. I am exhausted from the lack of sleep. I just don't know how you manage alone with multiple sick children often. You're my hero! : )
