Two humans.
Two dogs.
Six states.
Seven hundred forty-five miles.
Twelve hours, if we're lucky.
We're leaving in one day. Tomorrow.
We should probably start packing.
Boy, do I hate packing. Normally, I make a list, and check it twice, just to make sure I have everything I could possibly need, and then some. Yes, I over-pack; I am a lady.
I'm excited about Christmas in Michigan. The snow, the family, the food, the drinks, the laughs! I can't wait!
In our four Christmases together, this will be the first one I'll spend with Jason's family. I'm eager to participate in their family traditions, and experience something new. Fear not Hightower family--I plan to give you all a call! Fingers crossed, we can get FaceTime to work this year! :)
Witnessing a White Christmas would be stellar! It's not too often that we get snow here in the South, more sparse, a White Christmas! To my knowledge, I've never experienced waking up to freshly softly fallen snow. (Fingers crossed for this as well!)
(With temperatures like this, we're bound to see snow!)
Before we get to enjoy the Conlin family, we have to make it there!
This year we decided to drive Jason's car up--more room for the dogs, better in the snow, etc. It should be fun! I'm sure I'll zonk out within the first couple of hours driving. Luckily, Jason has the day off, before we leave and can rest up for a loooooooooong drive!
Buttttttttt, before that, it's home to finish our laundry and pack!
Pack for the boys. Pack for myself.
I'm counting down the hours! One more work day for me, then to the Northland we go!
