Vacation Starts Today!

We leave tonight for the good ol' Pacific Northwest. Presently the house is in the throws of packing. I am checking last minute emails and thought I would send our first vacation update to the site. Woo-hoo. I don't think it will sink in until we are on the plane! Too many last minute details that are so "un-vacation-ish" to tend to first!

I was told by my mom today that tomorrow's forecast is RAIN (why am I not surprised?) and around the highs of 57 degrees. Brrr. Makes me cold just thinking about it. I had thought I would just pack my winter coat, but no, I am going to make sure my winter coat accompanies me on the plane. Will be a pain--but it will be worth it in the long run.

Brady would LOVE to be able to play in real snow while we are there. It would be nice if we could, maybe on our trip to Mt St Helen's? That would be great. The kids would really like that. Secretly, so would I. Snow is FUN...but really, really, really cold. I will let you know if we get to. The word was out that the night before last, the snow level dropped to 1,500 feet. It isn't a far stretch to think that we could actually find some snow.

Ok. I really must get back to packing and the other stuff that needs to get done.
Until later!
