I'm baaaacccckkkkk!!!

I am so glad to be home. I actually got home Friday afternoon, but am just getting back into the swing of things.

We were supposed to leave on Saturday morning but on Friday afternoon, Chris called to let me know his next drop was in Jacksonville! Boy was I excited!! He was in PA at the time and was scheduled to pick up in Cincinnati Saturday morning for a Monday drop. There was NO way I could leave town knowing that there was the slightest chance I could see my husband. He had been gone for exactly 3 weeks and I missed him so much.

Saturday, he and his driving partner got up and high tailed it here. His partner said Chris was so excited he just wanted to drive and not stop until he got home. 16 hours later, he was home. It was 3 am and I was exhausted from all the excitement and they were exhausted from all the driving. We all talked for a bit then went to bed around 4 am. I was so excited to have him home I couldn't sleep. I just keep looking over to see him laying there sleeping.

Monday rolls around and we left around 11 am to go to my dads' house. I needed to have work done to my car and I trust those people over there to treat me fairly. Gotta love a small town.

Chris and his partner got their load dropped but were then stuck here for another day. By that point I was wishing we would have stayed another day but I was already to my dads', 4 hours away. Boo.

Got my car fixed by Thursday and by this time Chris was on his way to Denver. He called me late that night to tell me the truck broke down. Less than 2 hours from Denver too. They had to send another truck to pick up their load and then a tow truck to get their truck. What a mess!

Fast forward to today: They JUST got the truck fixed! They have been stuck in Denver for nearly a week! Why oh why couldn't the truck have broken down when they were here?? But thankfully they are driving again. I think they were starting to go stir crazy from all the sitting.

I took a few pictures of the girls while at my dads' house. Enjoy!

Sophie loves peanut butter sandwiches!


Lilly has gotten to where she doesn't want me taking her picture. I have to sneak up and try to get a good shot.


Caitlin ALWAYS poses for me.

Case in point.

Sophie will sit still, but doesn't always want to look my way.


And with this post I have realized that every one of my children need a haircut. Sheesh mom... get it together. :)
