We're Heading Home Today...

Usually we try to leave at around 8pm at night when we head out for a road trip. That way most of the kids sleep the majority of the way. We still had so much to do last night though, that we weren't able to get out. I'm hoping Eli will handle being on the road all day today ok. I was up at 4am yesterday to hit the after day after Thanksgiving sales with my sister, her boyfriend, dad, my brother Rob and Kate. I bought a LOT of movies. They were super cheap with the holiday sales, so we'll be watching those today.
I have no idea how we're going to get the truck packed. My father bought us a very large remote control airplane for the family for Christmas. Some of the boxes for it are 5 feet long. Tim is thrilled to no end with it and wouldn't let my dad ship it. Fitting us all in will be interesting to say the least. We'll be home tonight.
I hate leaving my family. It's really emotional for me. It's hard for me to get back more than once a year and I miss them so much. This was a great year because my brother made it back. We said our goodbye's last night. He hugged me so hard I couldn't breathe.
