Krista has taken the kids back to Indiana this weekend to visit with family and friends. She left of Friday with all four, and drove for 12 hours to reach her first destination. She proceeded to drive another hour for a family gathering the next day. Followed by a 1.5 hour drive the same day to visit more family. She made a short trip to visit a friend and now is making the 13 hour drive from there back to Oklahoma.
All reports are that all is well through all of the driving, visiting, sleeping, eating, etc. Krista will arrive back with everyone late tonight (appx. 1:30 AM). We will be here for a day before departing for San Diego for a week at our bowl game. We will then pack back up and drive back to Indiana for more visiting, eating, sleeping, etc. with my family.
Krista is unbelievably BRAVE to take on such a trip. I know how stressful that trip is with both of us going together. Who knows, maybe I'm the one that adds all the stress to the trip!!!! Anyway, she is never one to shy away from a challenge and for her to make this trip alone is nothing short of AMAZING! I thought she might be CRAZY as we talked before she left, but she is the farthest thing from crazy. She values her family/friends and will do whatever it takes to make sure the kids get to see their Uncle who lives in Austria, visit with Aunts and Uncles for their Christmas gathering, spend time with Great Grandparents, and see old college friends. No distance is to far for this lady.
What an INCREDIBLE woman!!!

UNBELIEVABLE! But - I knew she could do it, 8 hours was nothing, why not 12???? She and the kids mean more to family and friends than a headache ;)
