Road trip to Ohio

We had a great road trip. Starting last Wednesday, we had Doug's going away at work followed by and A's vs Rangers game in Dallas. A great way to leave Texas. Thursday Huston and I headed to Oklahoma and had lunch with Alanna, play date with Rhianne Dawley (David & Bri's baby born 2 days before Huston), Panera with Alanda and then stayed the night with Papa Lowery and Grandma Vicky. Friday morning we spent the day with Deda and then went to Nana Loretta's and Doug met us in Shawnee.

Saturday morning, we hit the road. Stopped in Chandler to see Jay and then drove to Eurkea Springs, AR. Huston did so good and slept the entire way. We had to wake him up to change him and make him eat. The place we stayed had a beautiful view and we went to Joey and Lyndsey's wedding. Sunday morning we went through Missouri to Scott AFB in Illinois and stayed with a good friend of Dougs. Had some great steak and got to catch up with Brian and his family. Monday we were able to spend some time in St. Louis before we headed out, got to see the arch, Busch stadium, Hooters (Huston's first trip) and some of the city. Huston slept the entire way to Indianapolis. We LOVED Indianapolis. We found a mall, the stadium where the Colts play, and ate dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. Got a hotel for the night and headed to Ohio Tuesday morning.

We are in temp housing until Friday morning and then the movers will bring our stuff! Excited to get it all unpacked, decorated and have a "home" again. We love Doug's truck, but are tired of living out of it!!

Doug went into work today to talk to his new boss. He is going to be the NCOIS (Non-commisioned officer in charge) for the Labor and Delivery unit. He will work mostly 4 8's and a 12, Monday-Friday (I LOVE this). There will be some exceptions and he'll work some nights and weekends as he gets to know his staff. I'm really excited for him....I think he is like me and is just ready to start!!
