One Week

In ONE week, our journey in Alaska will begin.  On our first day there, it is supposed to be sunny with a high of 20...not much different than it's been here lately!  Our plan is to make a trip to the North Pole (North Pole, Alaska, that is).  It is a real town where you can visit The Clauses and their reindeer.  We are excited about that trip!  The next day is Christmas Eve and the forecast is snow showers.  The kids are excited about that too.  We have almost finalized all of our shopping and packing.  Now, we going to try and make it through the "hustle and bustle" of the season.  Party, party, party and visiting friends we will not see for a while.  We are doing our Christmas early so that the kids can have their gifts for entertainment on the plane.  We are also going to be busy getting the house "in order".  The kids are going to LOVE that, I'm sure.  We appreciate all prayers for a safe trip and a "stress-free" plane trip.
