adventures big and small

we're heading to Raleigh tonight....late late tonight.  Ben has to work this evening and we're tailgating in the am.  can't miss that.  oh i miss the Hill.    

i think i'm starting to like these midnight road trips...we're certainly getting our fair share this year.  i can't think of anywhere i'd rather be at 2 am.  um. scratch that. bed would be nice.  really nice

tomorrow morning we get to bundle up and watch our tarheels beat state in the freezing cold.  then we get to relax and celebrate thanksgiving with people we love and miss. and then we get to drive all the way back on sunday.  

i guess adventures come in all shapes and sizes.  this little adventure is just perfect for this weekend.  

and we have a BIG adventure coming up.... we're going to ETHIOPIA in January!  I can hardly wait.  it will be here before we know it.  i love how perfect His timing is.  I think B and I both really need this trip--for a whole lot of reasons.  one being, i miss it terribly and I can't wait to show Ben that piece of my world.     

ps.  i quite possibly have the nicest boss in the entire world.

pss.  today was national hug-a-kenyan-day.  what, you didn't know that?  maybe I'll get smothered by hugs later tonight.  i could use a few.  

have a wonderful weekend.
