Leaving Tomorrow

I'm pretty much packed and ready to go for tomorrow morning. I'm not sure Micah realizes that the long-awaited trip to Manitoba is actually here. I gave him a Lightning McQueen backpack today and we packed some fun things inside and then he put it on and played "airplane" for awhile :) Unfortunately he came down with a pretty bad cold over the weekend. His nose has been like a faucet and he has a pretty nasty cough as well. Keziah started the coughing today too but was still surprisingly content all day. I hope she can stay that way ALL week!!

We're leaving some incredible weather here this week. Today the thermometer read +15 and I had to peel down to my t-shirt when I took the kids for a walk! Now it's off to the land of toques and mitts. But, it's OK because I'm sure the sun will be shining every day :)

I hate posting without pictures so here are a couple of the kids the other day when Erik took them outside to play. Can you tell that he dressed them too? :)

I hope and pray for safe traveling since there's slippery ice on some roads in some areas.

Have a fabulous time with your family!! I hope the trip goes well with two sick kids!! And, that +15 sure sounds nice - although I cannot complain about the 10 degrees we had yesterday! I do wish we had green grass like you guys, though!

Hope you have a really great time with your family and praying that the kids will be little angels on the flights there & back :) I'm sure they'll do really well!
