Tomorrow we travel

Well, it is finally here, after years of saving, we are now heading to Disneyland. The truck is packed, the pets are taken care of (three different homes) and both mine and Kendra's homework is packed. Just waiting for a call for the house, hopefully tomorrow at noon, that is the deadline but there was a long weekend. I am not going to sweat it until wednesday night.

As I said before though God is doing everything in his time. Over the past few days he showed this even more. Yesterday, after packing, we were doing the afternoon "river watch" and I noticed that some friends of mine are selling their van. I stopped and told them that I will call as soon as I here about the house and I will take it if it is still there.

Then today at 10am, I was doing homework and my dad calls to tell me that the man to refinish my tub is in town could he come today instead of wednesday? Well, this was one of the subjects to be removed tomorrow by noon, I informed the lady it would be wednesday, but no God had his plan. At 12:01 Jim left my house and said he hopes the tub will do fine, but please don't use it for 24 hours.

So, with God working at his time, I know now that I will get the phone call tomorrow by noon and we will be happily on our way.

Oh yeah, and Kendra went on her first plane ride this weekend. Her dad took her on a water plane from Vancouver to Nanaimo for her Grandparents Anniversary ( I believe it is 40 years)
There was a mini family reunion so what a long weekend for her.

Off to bed now as I no for me it will be a fairly sleepless night, I never sleep when I am excited. Have to sleep for the first leg of the trip so I can do the night driving. Our hopes are to pull into Anaheim by 4pm.

I will update you then with some pictures of the trip down. Dad's truck has been totally overhauled so we don't expect any troubles. Cell phones, MP3 player and DS are all fully charger, so everyone can listen to different music.
