We have less than a month to go before our big trip suddenly! The weather here at home is hot, the kids are almost finished school, and the swimming pool is getting a lot of use. We are going to be arriving in Dallas, Texas, in Winter on Boxing Day. Seems so bizarre! I have started packing, but have a million things to do before we leave. I know that in the blink of an eye, I will be sitting on the plane with my family. Can't wait!
