Not long now...

Well....Time is passing by quickly with not long left until our 50+ hours of traveling back home for Christmas. Yeah...thats right...50+ hours. We leave Bundaberg at 7am on Saturday morning, have a 4 hour layover in Brisy, then the 15 hour plane flight to LA, then a few hours in LA, then to Chicago, with a few hours there, and finally home to Nashville (we arrive Monday morning Australia time). It will be interesting to say the least!

We are busy as ever getting everything ready before we leave. I cant wait to get on the plane and know that it is all behind me. We are all getting really excited about traveling again as well!

Dave will be 10 months old next Saturday and is now crawling. I do wish he would have waited until we were in the states. It will be hard now keeping him confined in the plane. He is waving and saying Bye-Bye! He is a bit clingy-but I think that is normal for his age.

Noah is talking like crazy. His language and vocabulary have really come a long way in the past month or so. He love scraft and loves kicking the ball outside.

Shane is loving his job at the council (and so am I)!!! He has been pretty busy lately helping run the men's ministry at church and playing soccer on Tuesday night.

Me-well...I'm busy just being a Mom. I am working really hard on the creche (nursery) for the church in preparation for next year. I am trying to have lots done before I leave. I've been cooking a lot for the "Helping Hands" ministry at church (they take meals to people who are sick or have just had babies).

Well...thats a pretty good update for now. I will try and post some pictures before we leave. There are so many things to do!!!! I will be posting while we are in the states too-so if you want to check out the traveling Elsons....just have a look here!
