Hope had a cute little blue and white outfit on yesterday, and I came into the room and she had this bow on her head-compliments of Hannah. (She needed a little red I was told) I'm not sure how it even was staying put, there isn't much hair up there. I just finished a HOT game of UNO. At least I can still beat my kids at that. Haha. We all leave tomorrow for our big Utah trip. Oh, how I love to pack :0 not really, but oh well it has to be done. Hope and I are jumping on the airplane, while Scott and the rest of the kids start the journey (in the car). I feel somewhat guilty, but not enough to cancel my flight. If you know what I mean.
We had a great 4th of July yesterday and I ate way to much ribs, brisket, Texas sheet cake and potato salad. I love that blasted Texas sheet cake. It's calling to me now! You've got to love Texas...we popped fireworks outside for 3 hours last night! If everybody at the party spends $50-$100 on fireworks, then you can put on quite the show. I have to admit I was like an old lady with the kids...somebody has to be. Scott...he was having fun! So, I had to make sure nobody killed themselves, poked out an eye, or burned their finger...oh yeah that happened anyway. Hayden showed me a blister this morning...that he didn't tell me about last night, "because it didn't hurt one little bit". He just knew I'd make him stop.
I'm off to continue the packing odyssey. Hannah, looked at all the crap...I mean stuff in my room and asked, "how long are we going to be gone, Mom?" Why oh why do we need so much stuff???

those lips on that baby. oh my. they're mine tomorrow!!! (i can't wait!) and i love hannah's accessories. and i love hayden's use of "one little bit" again. he's a crack up!
She is so cute! Have a wonderful trip!
hope is soooo sweet. love the bow. gotta appreciate a big sister who knows the importance of accessorizing! good luck with packing. i always dread it, too, and pack too much, but better safe than sorry. oh, and you are a smart woman, flying with the baby. that is the most genius idea i've ever heard. enjoy that extra sanity you'll have by not traveling all that way in the car with 4 kids. (take extra sanity where/when ever you can get it!)
It actually is for my sanity not Heathers. Can you imagine being in a car for 2 straight days with a crying Mother and Baby? I will enjoy my little extra sanity where/when I can get it too!
:-)
Hope you have a great time up here in Utah! The hot sunny weather is waiting! :)
hehe. scottie - that thought crossed my mind! i could just imagine your snarl face being permanent after having it for 2 days straight!!! i can't wait to see you guys!
you have a good hubby, heather! :)

Oh she is a sweet baby, can't wait to meet her. Have a great flight!! I never could talk Todd into working that situation. He won't even let me take a turn driving because he knows the hard work you have to do in the co-pilot seat. Ugh. See you this weekend! Yea!
