Oh, Brother!

You know how you have all these plans and then you have plans within those plans of how the plans will unfold?  Why do we do that?  I always question my philosophy of "sticking to the plan" whenever there are holidays.  I should just leave the windows open from the very beginning and have my plans folded like paper airplanes....that way it would be kind-of like a game when they get thrown out the window.  I guess it wasn't so bad....we did make it from point A to point B, but Kassi felt sick this morning and ended up having Strep, so we had to travel a la bucket, Brad got gas in our "trip" van and then it wouldn't start, so he had to take it to a shop to have it checked out and we had to determine which vehicle we trusted, I wasn't sure if I would need to work a full day, so departure time was TBD, and Kooper (our dog) got sick as well.  At one point Brad said to me, "if we do this, it's on a wing and a prayer." Really?  You're gonna tell a planner we are going on a wing and a prayer....haha!

OH, BROTHER! 

BUT, the most exciting unplanned occurrence of today was.....drum roll please.....Brad's brother Kent came to visit.  We haven't seen him for at least 5 years, so plans will be altered for that surprise :)  We were able to hang out with him and let Savannah and Danielle meet him and, really Karly too, because she was just a baby the last time we saw him.  I can take that kind of game changer :)


We had such a great time catching up with him a little bit and he taught us a new game, Pandemic.  I   can't stop thinking about it....now, I want to play it at a tougher level.... Can't wait for a rematch.
