Countdown

In less than 2 weeks I will see Joe and the boys again!!! I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited. It is lonely without them around. I do get to read lots of books and now do homework with my intro to interiors class. It will be nice to have a car again too. It is nice to walk around to different places, but it has been so hot. Can I just say that I am grateful for Skype. I get to "see" my boys everyday. :)

Getting to New Jersey

We made it to New Jersey last night at 8 p.m. It was a long 2 days, but we are here and we are safe. We didn't really stop too long anywhere and only slept for a few hours here and there, but the boys did surprisingly well, other than Samuel vomiting a number of times on our first full day and once yesterday. We are wondering if he is motion sick, but even if he isn't, our car smells like vomit. We are happy and excited to be here. I will be sad when I leave on Tuesday, but at least I will have a few days to relax before I leave and Joe and the boys stay. It will be sad to be away from them for a few weeks, but it will be good for them to be here and spend time with their other grandma and grandpa.

There was some crazy wind and some crazy thunderstorms during our drive. One flash of lightning blinded us for a few seconds as the thunder shook our car. We must have timed it perfectly. Can I say that currently, Iowa and Ohio are beautiful. I also love, love, love Pennsylvania.
