Prayers for Travel Mercies

I am thankful that we have a well traveled boy.  I am grateful for his love of music and adventure. 

Tomorrow morning at 4:45 a.m., Jake and 77 other members of the BVW band, along with their directors, and 30 other parents and/or family members will be leaving for San Diego, California.  They will be attending a concert band festival.  They have three jam packed days planned.  They will be going to Sea World, the Museum of Music Making, and tour the USS Midway Aircraft Carrier among other things. They will stay busy and return home Sunday evening.

To say that Jake is over the moon excited is an understatement.  We are currently watching the movie 42, in hopes of calming some of his excitement.  His suitcase is mostly packed. We will make finishing touches and pack his dress clothes toothbrush and pillow in the morning.  

I hope to give you a full report - or as close as possible - on Monday or as soon as Jake shares his tales of the trip.  (The directors have assured those of us staying home that this will not be an adventure of 'what happens in San Diego, stays in San Diego'.)  ;-)

I'm gonna miss him.

:-)

Please keep Jake and our band family in your prayers for safe adventure.
