Home!

A 14 hour trip turned into an 18.5 hour trip, but we made it home last night.  Leaving at 4 in the morning makes for some cranky adults and hyper children.  Meeghan was pretty pissed about being in the car seat so much.  I am definitely not looking forward to the move in a few weeks although we will split that into two days.

I had so much fun in KC! It was great to see my family and friends.  Hannah slept in a bunk bed and loved it.  Meeghan received a ton on attention, and she definitely loved it. It stinks it took 7 months for my family to meet her, but I am glad they were able to see her now. I am pretty sure I gained about 10 pounds from all the food I ate.  I have been home for less than 24 hours, but I am already craving barbecue.  Texas barbecue just isn't the same.  I am hoping we can make it back for Thanksgiving or Christmas so we don't go an entire year without visiting.  Once I finally make it through all my pictures I will post some.

We survived!

We made it to KC without too many issues.  The only miserable part was the last hour when Meeghan decided she had enough of being in the car.  Otherwise we made it in about 16 hours.  Leaving at 4:30 sucked, but it helped make our arrival a decent hour.  We have been having fun visiting with family and friends.  Only a few more days and then it is back in the car for another 16 hour day.  At least we know what to do for the move in a few weeks.  Let's hope the trip home is as smooth as the trip here.

Last flight

Today is the husband's last flight as a student.  I am so excited for him! He has been working very hard for this point.  In just 16 days he will receive his wings which will be such a great experience.  To celebrate we are hitting the road very early tomorrow morning to visit family in Kansas City for a few days. He hasn't been home since Christmas 2011 and he really wants to go back.  He was approved for his paternity leave, and we are off.  It probably isn't the best idea considering we are moving in a month, but we will figure out something. I am so happy to be visiting family and friends!
