Day 10

Today was a full, but VERY productive day!

Today is pack, clean, play, nap, pack, clean and travel day.  We left for Grenada tonight to visit my family. I knew that today would be really long, due to excitement, so I packed it full while trying not to overwhelm the kids.

We ran a couple of errands from 9-10:30 and the met family at the pool.  Relaxed at pool with nephews and mother-in-law until 1pm then bath and nap!  While the kids were asleep I started packing the bags.  Fortunately, some of the kids clothes were folded in a basket in my room and Matt's stuff was on a pile on the bed.  I used all of nap time to pack all the bags and start a pile at the garage door.  I did multi-task while packing. I ran several more loads of laundry and changed the sheets on my bed. I did the dishes in the kitchen and straightened the house.  I wanted my house to be comfortable when we came home because we are going to be tired!  Thankfully the kids slept for 4.5 hours and I was able to pack the car too.  My car was virtually packed and the house was clean before we left!  AMAZING!

Needless to say, I was exhausted by the time we were halfway to our stopping point west of Atlanta.  The goal was to stay awake and keep Matt awake since he was driving.  That almost failed.  I was so tired!!  We made it safely to the hotel in Lithia Springs, Ga at 12am.  The kids were still awake, but within 10 minutes we were all fast asleep! 

Let's see what this vacation will bring to my Challenge.
