I would imagine that the two back at the office are planning much to laugh about upon my return. I will fill you all in when I get back to the pit (what I call my office most of the time.)
Mom #1 & Mom #2 - There will be paybacks....Oh yes! There will be paybacks. So BEWARE!!
Our trip up here was not as bad as I thought. I am sure Erin will let you know as well.
Eli has been having bad dreams more often then normal and on the way up to Washington for the holidays he mentioned that he wanted to go to the Dream Store. He said, "Dad, when I am all grown up I am going to the Dream Store. They have something you can buy that will make all your bad dreams go away and all you have is good dreams all the time. That would be cool huh?" Apparently we on planet earth have a store for anything. I wouldn't mind going the dream store myself. I asked him if he could take me to the Dream Store someday...!
Have a great Holiday season to you all.

The "Hell Ride" home
I am trying to prepare my mind for the trip back to the homeland (Clarkston, WA - my glorious hometown) for Christmas with the parents. I think Erin and I will check ourselves in to the psych ward when we get back. So I have developed a plan for preparing my mind with the craziness that awaits. Maybe if I stick to this plan I will be ready for what awaits and I can avoid the "check in" at the crazy house when we return....
Mind Preparation Phase 1 - The packing of the crap in our transportation vehicle!
Keep in mind-all the Christmas stuff that you buy for kids under the age of 5 is ginormous. My mind is sort of at ease, because I am at the office so much this week and working nights at a restaurant to pay for this fun trip. So the load piles on top of my beautiful, humble, and yes...very attractive wife. (There was absolutely no sarcasm in my typing at all) I will however try and fit it all in the vehicle later. That alone could almost be a phase by itself.
Mind Preparation Phase 2 - The 12 hour drive up with three kids under the age of 5. Then, while at our destination comes the tricky part. Trying to have a good time without thinking of the drive back......YIKES! I still have not figured out how to not think of the hell ride home when on a vacation.
Mind Preparation Phase 3 - Who am I kidding - we are still going to the "Loony Bin"!
