Mocha missed you!
We arrived safe and sound in Orlando with only “minimal” moments of bedlam, but completely devoid of any beauty.
Apparently Bugles, Doritoes and large doses of Vault, mixed with cramped quarters and
gaseous air, do not equate to a contented stomach.
We happened to be the van trailing directly behind that discontented stomach and let me just say, his mother’s command of
“Quick, hang your head out the window” just doesn’t do the scenario justice.
Unfortunately, I woke to our van pulling over for clean up duty and I missed the first hand account of the sheer bedlam that I could have added to this post. No, it was not my child, but two of our kids were riding right in there with them. I do believe they gave some coaching expertise on their excellent “techniques.”

May I just add that my husband and I’s dating motto of
“Sleep is over rated” is such a lie.
Who were we kidding? I LOVE my sleep….crave it….need it.
My entire body feels like I just partied all night on cheep beer at a bad frat party and quite honestly….I have never even done that before, but I am imagining that this would definitely be the aftermath. So since I am regressing, can’t keep my eyes open, and my hubby has the card with all the great photos of my Christmas tradition posts, I am off to bed, hoping that my boys are all set for their big game tomorrow!! (Which I wouldn’t know since I am sleeping in relative silence, while my husband chaperons the bedlam.)

I am glad that you made it safely. I couldn’t help but get tickled over your description of the “discontented stomach”. Poor kid!
(Love the pictue of Mocha…I showed the kids!)
I am so glad you arrived safely. I too LOVE my sleep and don’t function well without it. I am wishing your boys the best in their big game! Mocha really is just too CUTE!!
OMWord! What a gift you have with words, your post paints quite a picture, lol Cute Mocha!
BTW – I added you to my blog list and I hope that’s ok? Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. And I hope your boys have a great big game outcome!
Oh my!! What a vivid picture. Best wishes on the big game!

aww, thats to bad. I hope everyone is feeling much better and that your boys kicked booty!!! Hope you have a safe trip back!;) LA
Glad your back safe and sound…and I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing the bedlam!
I hope you get some sleep and that the kids that got sick are much better tomorrow! I hope they have a great game!
Oh, I can’t wait to hear more stories from this week.
I realized that I have not been on here for several days, ACK! I love the past few posts, though. Love the sweet reindeer, love the “bird” house (and the sweet deal!), and LOVE the hair. : )
Oh no. I'm sorry it got off to such a rough start. Hope the game goes well & the ride back better than the one down.
Try to have some fun while you're there.
Sounds like you need a long night’s rest in a clean, comfortable bed!
Enjoy the journey! 😀 Bummer about the tummy troubles…poor kids!
blessings along the way,
melissa
I am glad you made it safe. I hope you get some sleepF!!
By the way, can you tell me about this football thing. My son plays and I was wondering what kind of league and so forth are you in?
