Road trip


We left Oak Park early this morning for a trip to the farm in Staunton. It's a four-drive if you go straight through, but with three kids in the car it took us almost five hours (7:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.) We did stop for a quick lunch north of Springfield. A had to work today so he'll drive down Thursday morning. The kids are always so excited to go to the farm to see Grandma. L was packed Sunday night already.

This afternoon, the girls and I went with Grandma and Aunt C to see the movie "Old Dogs." Afterward we had dinner at Pizza Hut and stopped by Walmart to get B some Ramen noodles. On the way out, L begged Aunt C for 50 cents for the crane game and surprisingly won a cute, stuffed Christmas bear. She claims it was her first-ever crane game win. She was so excited. She named it Lucky.

And good news for E - there was a message on our phone today that she earned her orange belt from last Saturday's testing. Congrats, E!
