18 hours on the road. . .

. . . and we lived to tell about it!
That may not seem like such a long trip to some, but it seemed like an eternity when we hit the 6th hour mark and knew that we had 10 hours left, ugh! The drive back from MA took 3 hours longer, mostly because we had to stop at 2am and sleep at a rest area for 2 hours because both of us were too tired to drive and we also stopped for breakfast when we hit TN to load up on coffee and let the girls out of the car. The girls did well, sleeping most of the drive which is why we go through the night. I'm still not sure what is more exhausting- going a whole night without sleep or travelling during the day and entertaining the girls the whole time. I was really dreading the return trip but now its over and I find myself wondering the house in a fog.

Christmas went by way too quickly, I still can't believe its over. We had a great time in MA and really enjoyed being with Andy's family. Unfortunately there was no snow so we didn't get to torture Lizzie by forcing her to go sledding like we did last year. At least we got to play in snow at Thanksgiving!
And now its the new year, unbelievable. I was actually thinking of resolutions last night when I was going to bed. I think they are silly and ridiculous and yet I was still making my list of things to try to strive for this year. There's something motivating about having a clean slate or a set day when you can try to improve things or sharpen some areas of your life. I'll not list them here mostly out of the embarrassment of how generic they are but if I'm successful in implementing some changes in my life and it lasts more than 3 months then I'll be happy to post about it. LOL

Happy New Year!
