"We'll see you when we get back!"

"They have been playing

for a really long time,........

I really should go check on them."

This is something I say to myself daily.

They play so well together, why interrupt a good thing,......right?!

However, I always know a long time playing=a long time creating a mess.

Sometimes it's worth the price, sometimes not!!:)

Their daily play consists of countless adventures that always seem to involve moving everything from one room into another!

They are either "moving" into a new house, or going on trips.

This particular day, I was getting a lot done as they were getting ready for a "trip." I was somewhat worried with the just how many times they were passing me with bags of ..??... behind their backs-all while saying,

"You don't see us!

You don't see us!"

I just kept one eye closed.

(in denial)

Just as I got up to check on them,

the doorbell rang.

It was Justin- asking for a towel! A towel??? "Yes, my dog fell and got dirty-and Gracie's baby is cold !" "Justin, I didn't even know you were outside!"

"Mom, were going on a trip, we got all ready, but I need a towel and baby clothes-we'll see you when we get back."

How far would they have gotten if there hadn't been a dirty dog and a cold baby?

I shutter to think of it.

I can only imagine, (and smile) at what my neighbors would think seeing this pair traveling through the neighborhood with their suitcases.

Notice the Target bag.... this was one of 2 bags, plus 2 suitcases, packed with EVERYTHING they would need for their trip.

Apparently, going somewhere warm......Gracie packed every swimsuit.
