Here we go!!!

Bright and early tomorrow....before dawn even....we will be in the car headed to the airport.  THIRTY NINE hours later we will be at my Aunt's house in Australia!!!  I am super excited for the trip, but stressed to the max over getting everything ready for the trip and then even more stressed about the getting there part.  I have made the trip before (a few times actually) and I know how grueling and exhausting it is.  But I have never done it with a little one.  She loves to fly, but has never been on a plane more than three hours and she HATES layovers.  Of course, our first layover is five hours. I am taking what I hope is a lot of goodies to keep her occupied.....not to mention the Benedryl to help her sleep :-)

We are going over for my cousin Daniel's wedding.  It is  nice to have family in such far away places, but I sure do miss them when we aren't together.  I can't wait to see everyone!  Steven and I went eight years ago for my other cousin Caroline's wedding.  She now has three little girls and I am looking forward to meeting them and watching Emmaline play with them.  Fun times ahead!!!  Not to mention lots of picture taking is in my future! :-)

Please say a prayer for my family as we travel.  Thanks!!!

What a trip! It's been fun hearing your updates on FB (despite all the jet lag). I feel a blog post coming on when you get back! Have fun!
