A day late and a dollar short

24 hours from now we will be heading out to the airport for our marathon trip home, and this evening is when our 'new' installation of internet finally was completed. Whew. At least Travis will have internet at home while he's sitting here by himself for a month while F and I are gallivanting around CO... after some technical difficulties with our first phone/DSL line our entire order was abruptly cancelled without our consent or notification. To fix this we had to simply start over. Which meant waiting in queue again for 10 business days for an installer to show up between 8am and noon. I just hope it sticks this time.

We've had some fun times lately, a great Halloween party, splashing around at the pool every week, and lots and lots of errands. I'm not quite sure why there are so many errands, but it seems that leading up to any great trip there's just always a lot to do. Today, filling the carryons with snacks!!! and making sure we really do have enough toys to entertain a 16 month old for 30 hours (in case he decides not to sleep for any of it...)

Next week we'll all be in Phoenix for my brother Q's wedding. Yippee! We're excited to see Q and Karen again, it's been since last Thanksgiving and this year F won't spit up on them quite so much. He'll terrorize the cats more, tho ;) Travis' sister is expecting a baby any moment now, probably right when we're in the air and can't get any phone calls telling us it's happening.

Signing off for now, but it's only temporary this time folks.
