On our way

We are mid flight on our way to San Diego with a connecting flight in Phoenix.

This past week has been an absolute whirlwind of events. We tried to pack in as much fun for the boys as we could so that missing their friends might come later in the journey rather than sooner ; ) Skyzone, sleepovers, movies, bowling, flag football, to name a few...all culminating at our surprise Bon voyage party at our favorite gin joint. We were so taken aback by the number of friends who came out to wish us well. Chris commented that he didn't realize how many people wanted us to leave town! ; ) Thank you all who were in attendance. I hope we got to speak to each of you even for a little bit. We certainly stayed long enough to try as we were the last car to roll out of the parking lot!

The next day I woke up in a panic knowing that it was our last day to pack and get all the loose ends tied up. I think we did pretty well although I won't be surprised to learn of an unturned stone somewhere down the road. Fortunately for us, we have a trustworthy band of friends lined up and some waiting in the wings to take care of whatever may happen to our affairs back home. And to all of you, big hugs and huge thanks! I would not feel as comfortable taking this journey if we did not have you!

So now we are on our way. I hope you stay with us through our blogs. We will try our best to relate our experiences back to you wishing all the while you were here with us instead ; )
