let the countdown begin.....

we are headed to Branson for a Hollis family Thanksgiving in just 5 more days! To help the kids understand when we leave (they are about jumping out of their skin to go.....they only ask what day we are leaving about every 20 minutes!) we made paper chains. Every morning we clip one more chain off and count how many are left. We started with 7 and we are now down to 5. We are all anxiously awaiting the day we awake to just one more chain....we'll pack up the car....wait til Kaleb gets out of school....and then head to Missouri. We simply can't wait!

That's hillarious b/c we are going to Zach's parents house for Christmas (leaving the 20th) and Brynley has been crying so often about wanting to leave for Grandma's house that we made a chain, too. Hey, whatever works
