So here we are, Monday AM. Only a few more days! Dad, you mentioned in your post you'd bring TP, dog food, etc. We'll bring some dog food, as well. TP, paper towels, anything like that will be GREAT!

Youngs, so glad to have XBox at the gathering. I don't have much use for it, aside from the Rock Band occasionally, and we'll bring that. It's so much fun.

Looks like towels & sheets are covered. As I said, we'll worry about food when we get there.

My dad & possible Russell will be coming out on Thursday. Checkout is early Saturday, and the Brendles Jr. may leave before that. I have to work Saturday night, and Larry, Aidan & Zack have a football game Saturday AM here in Raleigh. Larry's the coach, Zack the assistant, and Aidan the QB, so they have to be there. Regardless, we'll have a wonderful long time together.

As a side note, the boys are tracked out for 3 weeks end of Jan, beginning of Feb. We are tentatively planning a trip to FL then, hopefully for a week or a little longer. Don't know how long Little Lar can stay, but the boys, dogs, & Kristi can come indefinitely. We'll have plenty of time to plan while we're at the beach.

Launa, when is your surgery? Are you sure you'll be able to drive/ride all that way? You can always fly to Raleigh & ride over with us; it's about 4h by car from here.

Love you all lots & can't wait to hug you in person!
