Goodbyes

We said our goodbyes for another 4 months. I don't think it ever gets easy, but at least we know what to expect on the other side now.

Packing to leave for Houston. The inside was completely full so we tied some to the top. We had 1 suitcase, 3 ice chests, 11 tubs, 1 dog, 8 carry ons and a partridge in a pear tree. :-) Kenny was very happy.....NOT!!!!

The best part of the packing was the wall built between the boys seats. We had no fighting for the 7 hour trip to Houston. It was so nice. 

It got a little hot on the way to Houston. Everything was ok when it got to Angola.

Sophie had a nice ride to Houston.

Final goodbyes in Houston with Tat and Sally. We hadn't seen them in about 5 years. It was really nice to see them.

The boys, Sally and Tat.
