We arrived home from San Francisco at 8:30am on Sunday, November 21st. (You'll get more complete updates on our trip after Thanksgiving) Since my luggage was lost, I couldn't do any laundry on Sunday. So, I just forced myself to stay awake (after getting about 2 hours of sleep on the red-eye flight) by doing a little bit of cleaning. My luggage arrived Monday, so that evening was spent sorting the clothes and doing laundry. Tuesday evening was spent packing. And today...we drive!
The trip to NY the day before Thanksgiving is always a treacherous one. We hit traffic at the Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel (HRBT), then it clears up for a bit until we pick up 95 after Richmond. Then, it's insanity until we pass DC. Many times we choose to go a different route that actually takes about 30 minutes longer, but it's MUCH less stressful.
We shall see what the traffic holds for us today. It should be interesting traveling with Bella this time! :)
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Quick update
Life has been full lately! We're headed to San Francisco next week so we've been busy preparing for that. Mike flies out on Friday morning to present a paper at the Religious Communication Association. I'm so proud of him! I couldn't afford to take Friday off, plus I have bell choir rehearsal on Saturday morning, so I'll be flying out at 5pm on Saturday afternoon. We fly back on Saturday, Nov 20 at 10 something pm, arriving in Norfolk at 7am...or something crazy like that!
While we're there, we'll be attending both the RCA as well as the National Communication Association. Some friends of ours will be attending as well, so I'm hoping to be able to hang out with Rachel and 'the girls' some while Mike and Andrew are at the conference. I may find myself alone though, in which case, I'll need to do some exploring on my own! I wonder if there's any good shopping... :)
NCA ends on Wednesday afternoon and I have LOTS for us to do. Top on the list is Yosemite National Park.
That's all for now. I'll try to keep up to date while we're gone!
