We made it home safe and sound! Thirteen plus hours in the mini made me about swear I would never drive anywhere farther than my local grocery store again. Phew. Today is exactly what I thought it would be...one big huge adjustment to reality. Blah! After having my MIL here for 2 straight weeks

We are having the BEST time here in Hilton Head Island! Not gonna lie though, taking 3 boys on vacation is very much like traveling with a circus. Even with a babysitter in tow...we are one wild bunch! For example, this is what I have been tweeting lately... At least he was singing "God is Able"

As we prepare for our vacation, a car mini-van ride that will take us nearly 12 hours {more like 15 with kids}, please pray that we can keep all of these cute faces happy. Our youngest has NEVER traveled anywhere. At all. He sometimes goes to the grocery store {10 minutes away} and church {12
