I have less than 48 hours to get my act together. In that time I have a list of "Have Tos" and a list of "Want Tos".
Have Tos:
I have to make a Pilgrim Costume (I kid you not, the school just sent this home).
I have to get and wrap Birthday Presents for Logan (since we will be gone for his 12th Birthday).
I have to put together a "Reporter Costume" for Logan's play (I will be missing 2 of his plays over the week- the middle school play and a One- Act Play competition).
I have to pack for myself (I'm packed in my head, just need to put it in a suitcase).
I have to pack for Ryan, Logan, Griffin and Christian
I have to take the dogs to the border complete with vaccination records and their bed
I have to deliver all the kids packed bags to the various places they will be staying throughout the week.
I have to teach Sunday school tomorrow morning.
I have to water the plants (can't forget that one, I know I will).
I have to shop for our Thanksgiving Meal (that, oh yes, we are cooking a few days after coming home).
Want Tos;
Everything else. Mostly involving leaving the house spotless so I won't come home to a mess.
Fill Operation Christmas Child Boxes
Fill the Belize Mission Trip supply bags
Get the Car washed
I had a longer list yesterday but I got a lot crossed off! I feel like my head is about to explode. If it was just me it would be so much easier but I have to anticipate what each kid will need for up to the next 7 days. If we don't get the Visa on Friday we will have to stay until Monday and that means we won't be home until Tuesday.
Please pray that we get our Visa on Friday so we can leave Saturday. Please pray that we are able to switch our tickets. Please pray for safe travels. And most of all please pray for our first meeting and our new daughter. Thank you!
Safe travels! like you have time to blog, lol.
