And We're Off!!

We left right at 4 this afternoon.  Doug was able to leave early from work and pick up Cam.  Cal cut practice short and Meg didn't go to hers as it was at the Warsaw Racquet Club.  I was thankful that we were able to get everything packed yesterday as I only had a couple of things to add to the suitcase today.

The trip down included a couple of thunderstorms, but other than that it was pretty easy.  I didn't know how Cal would handle nine hours in the van with us, but he had his phone, headphones and a book to keep him occupied.  We also gave him the back by himself so he could stretch out.  Cam spent his time coloring in his new Harry Potter coloring book, reading, watching movies and playing on the iPad.  Meg listened to music and texted Kaitlin as she left for Florida today.

I appreciated Doug driving the entire time especially when it was raining.  We made it to Blytheville, Arkansas around midnight central time.  Tomorrow we will only have an hour to Memphis.  Elvis and Pandas - couldn't ask for more!
