Packed my bags

I have spent the day gathering things. Packing things I think Cricket and I will need for a road trip. Cricket has been worried his favorite toys will be left behind. Though out the day I would find a bear, a pig and boomer sitting in a pile by my feet and those big old puppy dog eyes staring at me as if to say don't forget to pack these. It's been almost 2 years since I have been to San Antonio. I feel the need to spend time with my family. To sit with Heather in her studio during the day while the kids are in school. Fixing dinner and having a family meal together in the evening. Listening to Hannah and Evangeline spin stories about their day. It will take 10 hours for Cricket and I to make it across Louisiana and half way across Texas. My IPOD is ready to play some tunes as we travel through the swamps and bayous. If you don't hear from me for awhile not to worry I will be two stepping my way across Texas.
