~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, the kids and I are going on vacation. First, we are going to spend a week at my parent's house on the east coast, then drive 8 hours up to Canada for a visit, then back to my parents house for a few more days. We'll be gone until October 27! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again, it's been three years since our last trip. I'm also excited about the cooler weather and beautiful fall colors that I'm sure we'll see. I bought a new sweater for the occasion and I had better be able to wear it!
We have borrowed suitcases from various family members.
Of course, I had to do laundry before packing!
Piles of warm pants and sweaters.
Gifts and outgrown winter clothes for the nephews and nieces. My sister just had a new baby a few weeks ago and I've never met my other niece Keira, so I can't wait to see them!
Our kitty, Fern has decided to boycott our trip. She thinks if we can't get to the sink to brush our teeth, wash our face, etc. we'll call everything off. ;0)
I'm not taking my laptop on the trip. Are those *gasps* I hear?! I do have a few Autumn decorating posts saved up and "Show and Tell Friday" will continue while I'm gone! I will be posting Mr. Linky an hour earlier tomorrow night though. We have to get up at very early tomorrow morning to catch our flight, so I won't be able to stay up until Midnight Eastern time. It will be posted at 11:00pm Eastern time.
I'm off to bed, so I'm bright eyed and bushy tailed at 3:45am. Have a mentioned I'm not a morning person?
Bye for now!

Have fun! I am glad for your kids to get to see their Grands again.
It's hard to pack for going north this time of year. So much luggage since you have to be prepared for cool weather or nice temps! Double packing!

Have a WONDERFUL time with your kiddos!!!

Have a wonderful vacation! Where in Canda will you be travelling? I know you are originally from Ontario, which is where I am. Weather forecast here for the next few days is 11 to 14 degrees celcius, cloudy with showers. But there are still some trees that are beautiful!!
Enjoy you trip, and stay safe!

I hope you get to wear your sweaters, but I'm in Vermont, and it is has been too warm to even need a sweater lately. We haven't even turned on our heat yet. :)
Have fun with your family!
Hey Kelli,

That gasp was from me. :)
Are you coming through PA?
May God bless your trip.

I'm on the east coast (central Florida) come see me!!

Have a great holiday!
I hope you have a wonderful vacation. It is a nice long one at that!
Have a great trip Kelli!
I live on the east coast and "sweater weather" has officially arrived, so that new sweater should come in handy!
Too cute the way Fern is trying to boycott your trip. My friend's cat tries to do the same thing by laying in her suitcase.
You will be terribly missed here, but good for you leaving the computer behind. Have a wonderful visit with your family. I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back!
Oh, I bet everyone is so happy that you're going to see them!
Safe journey to you and yours Kelli.
The cat photo is a hoot!
Wishes for a safe journey for you and the family. Hope you get to see lots of beautiful autumn foliage on your trip.
I'm glad you're leaving your computer behind. Your only *duty* will thus be to enjoy your trip. :-)
