So long, farewell...

We all slept much better last night and actually slept in!  Katherine woke up and in the middle of the night and was ready to play!  Luckily, she went back to sleep quickly.  It was after 8 before we rolled out of bed.  I know it was 8 eastern time - but still!  We decided to cook up some of the food that was left and ate breakfast at the cabin instead of eating out. 

It ended up that all of us, minus Bill and Paula stopped at the outlet mall on our way out.  We found the kids some shoes.  Luke got some new Crocs and tennis shoes.  Katherine got some brown and pink Mary Janes.  Sunday really was a good time to do the mall.  It was not nearly as crowded as I have seen it in the past.  By the time we hit most of the stores we wanted it was time for lunch.  We all met at a restaurant at the mall, ate lunch and watched the first half of the Titans game.  That worked out great.

Within five minutes of leaving the mall both kids were fast asleep.  They slept for 2 hours!  They are worn out.  We let Luke watch his new movie again and that got us almost home.  We actually did not have to stop all the way home which was a miracle!

We were glad to be home, but really wish we had one more day away.  We quickly set to work getting the suitcases unpacked and laundry started.  It is amazing how much laundry is generated by four people on a two day trip!  I planned ahead and requested tomorrow off, too.  I have a doctor's appointment and several other things lined up to do.
