Visiting, Packing, Driving, Visiting, Packing, Driving.....

The title for this post best describes what will be happening with us for the next week or so. My best friend Brandi is coming to Fort Wayne with her family (Aaron, Belle, & Sami-refer to the picture) all the way from Dallas, Texas to visit family and friends. They will be arriving Friday and hopefully Saturday and Sunday we will be able to squeeze some time in with them, they always have a busy schedule when they are in town. They both grew up in Fort Wayne and they still have quite a bit of family and friends that still live here. Brandi always has to make time to see everybody. She called the other day to fit us in the schedule. lol Her little sister just had her first baby the other day, a little girl. I remember being in highschool and her little sister was two. Now she just had a baby and I feel very, very old. lol
Sunday night ( after we have dinner with them) we will have the car packed and will take off for Columbus, Georgia to visit Bryan's brother Scott and his family ( Tara & Eli). We will be there for about a week and we have some cool things planned for the kids. So you may not hear from me at all next week. When I come back you can expect a full blog and some pictures. I feel bad about pulling the kids out of school for a week but we had no choice, Bryan had to choose his vacation in January and by the time he got the schedule of dates to choose from, there was nothing left for the summer months. We are all excited, we haven't had a 'vacation' for a couple of years. Not to mention we haven't seen our nephew Eli yet!
It's a 12 hour drive from Fort Wayne to Columbus. Columbus is about an hour south of Atlanta. We have some fun stuff planned for Atlanta too! Hopefully the kids will do well in the car. Last time we had a long road trip we had a van, this time we are traveling by way of little foreign car. If the kids don't kill each other we will do it for them. lol Bryan has been making CD 's for the boys. Wil loves his mix and Saige is suppose to make his tonight. We are going to drive at night hoping that the kids will sleep most of the time. Wish us good luck and pray for a safe trip. Talk at ya all later!!!
