We are leaving tomorrow afternoon for a 12-day cross-country trip which will take us all the way from Cincinnati, OH to Carlsbad, CA (Legoland) and back again. On the way we hope to see AngieMc and family, perhaps another hs family in California, and several families including Gwen's in Denver. We are SOOOO excited.
We are driving between 5-8 hours a day, depending on destination and things we want to see along the way. Not counting stops for potty breaks, etc. Please pray that the weather is okay for driving, that we are able to keep awake on the road, and that the kids are mostly good-natured throughout this LOOOOONG trip that they've been waiting for for months!
Thank you so much! We will be posting pictures when we get back, or maybe even blogging on the road...

You know you have our prayers!

We've been praying for your safety! We will be heading to Legoland ourselves in a little over a month, and the boys can't wait.

Stef!! I don't know if you'll be checking your computer while on the road, but you'll be minutes from Lissa and me. Actually, you'll pass right by our homes on your way into town from Angie's! Maybe you've already spoken to Lissa? If your schedule allows, we should at least have a meal together. :) Many prayers for a safe trip - how fun!
Janette, you too!! Just the possibility of meeting you both is very exciting!

I was hoping that we could see you two, Erica! I pm'd Lissa ages ago, but will get with you two soon with details.
Still praying, Stef!

Thank you for your prayers, everyone! We are now in Elk City after a night at my parents' in St. Lou and a night here after dinner in Oklahoma City. We are headed this morning to Albuquerque where we will attend Mass at Our Lady of the Assumption Church and get some sightseeing in (Petroglyph Natl Monument). Then off to Grants NM for our hotel.
Janette, Erica and Lissa, would so love to see you all!! We will be driving to the Holiday Inn on Lusk Blvd. in San Diego from Angie's. If you could PM me with an address/location where to meet you, I could map it out tonight and let you know what time we'll get there.
So exciting!!

Thank you for all your prayers, we are now back home safe and sound. No one got sick (except for a few sniffles) in the 12 days that we were gone -- with this family, that is a RECORD! -- and we pretty much escaped every weather disturbance along the way.
We all had so much fun together and enjoyed meeting 4real friends! I think those are our favorite parts of the trip!
Thank you for your prayers, from all of us.

So glad you made it home safely -- just wish I'd been able to meet you while you were here  ! Maybe your next x-country?

Welcome home, stef. Thanks so much for finding time to visit with us...and being the first to celebrate with us "live and in person" about our littlest one...what a wonderful memory. So, when are you coming again? Really .
Love,
