Raod Trip Day 59

We will be home today for Reye's football practice. Wow. 59 days of travel brought to a close.

Crystal made pancakes for the kids. They played the Wii and played outside a bit. Lots of sword fighting for the twins.

I ran out with the twins to get baby wipes. When we got back we went swimming in the neighbors pool. Great pool complete with a slide and jumping rock. Kay had a hard time shaking being sad since she couldn't swim. Hopefully it will be a good lesson in making the most of even hard times.

We got on the road around 1pm after a nice sandwich lunch. Wish we lived closer to Rick and Crystal. Petra was so sad to leave. She played more with the girls this time but really wanted to play with Johnathan.

Driving again took longer than expected.

When we got home Randy had a nice dinner ready for us. Randy and Reye had to run off quick for football practice. While they were gone some welcome home flowers arrived for me from Randy. Kay and Petra really wanted to play with friends. We got Kay's pet back from the neighbors. I started some laundry and we started to settle back in.

When the boys got back everyone did their own thing for a while and then Randy read the kids a bible story and said a prayer with the family. It was a nice end to our trip.

Putting the twins to bed was a bit challenging. They have had me at their side every day. I stayed with them for a bit and they did fall asleep.

Sweet dreams to all.
