it's go time

Today is our last day in Michigan for a while. We start the 21 hour drive tomorrow.... whether or not we stop midway will be up to how Max is feeling behind the wheel!

It's been a great last day: we went to the movies, played cards, and Max made steak, corn, zucchini, and potatoes on the grill for the whole family (plus cousins and grandparents!). It was so delicious I thought maybe I was in heaven!

It also happens to be our eight year anniversary! Max wrote a CHARMING song for me to commemorate the day.... all about how we ended up together. He played it on the guitar, and even made the words rhyme!! I was touched. I may have shed a tear even, but I wouldn't tell if I did.

Once we get home, I'll be in a flurry of cleaning house, scooping two weeks worth of poop from our three cats, doing laundry, etc, etc, etc. Because Monday? Monday is back to school for this teacher...

Yep, it definitely feels like Sunday night!

You might just have to forget about that e-mail I sent you. What in the world are people thinking making the kids start school when we're only half through August??

Good luck with that laundry!

School on Monday??! Oh no!! Just doesn't seem fair. Sounds like an awesome ending to your trip, and a song just for you? That rocks!

XOXO dad & mom

Happy travels...maybe stay away from candy this round? I too, am counting down the days to meetings and feeling the Sunday night blues (as Mr. Fine) calls them creeping towards me.

I love reading your blog. Your M&M story made me feel a little better about hating creamsicles! Lol.
