My Own Car

I am so excited to go to Tugfest!  We're going to Topeka tonight, then will leave bright and early tomorrow morning to head to Iowa!  :)  This is the first time that Michael and I have ever driven ourselves up there.  I'm looking forward to the long trip together, just the two of us, talking and laughing and having a good time.  We went to the store and bought drinks and snacks to take with us, so we won't even have to stop very often!  I'm excited that we're taking our own car, because we don't have to be on anyone else's schedule.  It can be kind of hectic when you have 4-7 other people that you're waiting on to get ready in order to go from one place to another.  Personally, as soon as I'm ready, I want to leave.  I don't want to wait another hour for someone to get in and out of the shower, for someone else to decide to wake up, to load everyone into the car, etc.  So this year will be a little different.  When Michael and I are reeady, we can leave.  When we need to stop to stretch or for gas we can, but otherwise, it's going to be a pretty straight shot.  I'd rather munch in the car and skip lunch if it means we get to Iowa and to the family a little quicker.  ;)  So I'm looking forward to the trip and to being on our own schedule and no one elses.  :)  We'll be headed there very soon!  Can't wait!  :D  This time next year we'll be bringing a 10 month old baby girl to the Tug with us!  What a great family tradition!  Guess I'm a big kid now.  ;)
