Mom has a theory on traveling with 3 small children. She says it takes as much time to pack and recover from a trip as we spend on a trip. Therefore, she expects to spend 2 days preparing for our Tennessee Thanksgiving trip and 2 days unpacking and getting things back to normal. She did laundry and packed the kid suitcases today. We're taking Christmas gifts when we go so she's wrapping gifts tonight. She's also doing some housework which is always needed with us around. Tomorrow she's packing herself, the food and drink supply for the trip, and the endless supply of electronic and old fashioned entertainment so we don't annoy her to much on the nine hour drive. She's also working ahead on her job tomorrow so she doesn't have to work too much on vacation.
What about Dad you ask? He has a big project of his own. (Other than his 8-5 job) he's working on painting the house this week. He started last night. If you look behind the suitcases, you can see the new color. It's much better than the flat white paint that has black spots all over it from me and big brother putting our sticky fingers all over the walls.
