    Default ***sigh*** Our Christmas plans....

    I guess I might as well tell you now, since we will be leaving tomorrow.....

    We live in KS, hubby is from CA and I am from WA....
    we are doing what I have dubbed "the psycho Christmas loop" this year. We are leaving from KS, driving to CA (2.5 days), will get there Sunday, stay through Christmas, leave there on Friday, drive to WA (14 hours - one day), have Christmas on Sat....stay there till midday on the 1st ( Thursday), drive back to KS (a loooong 2.5 days) which should get us home late Sat night - oh, school starts on Monday.....oh, yea, that'll give the boys lots time to recover - HA!!!

    Can I just say how much I don;t want to go anywhere....at all?!?!?!?!?!

    I will seriously miis you all......have a wonderful Christmas.... I hope to check in periodically!!

    See you all next year!!

    That does sound exhausting. I remember so many Christmases in the car just driving from IL to several stops in Michigan, then back and that was tiring.

    Here is sending you ***good traveling vibes.***

    Sorry to hear you aren't wanting to go, but I do understand all that time in the car and traveling would be hard when its the holidays. Try to find something fun to spend your time on, and have a safe trip!
    From my family to yours,
    Merry Christmas, and have a wonderful New Year!

    Traci-I have done that trip with my family twice when we were younger. It was fun and not so fun at times. Stay safe on the roads and I hope the snow and ice stay away for you!!
