Our final day at the hotel, and in Peoria, arrived. We packed things up and started loading the cars.
Owen made sure his most prized possessions were ready to go.
And with binkies packed and ready, so were we.
We headed to breakfast for one last waffle.
Said goodbye to the bears in the lobby.
And checked out. That's when we found out that the Stoney Creek marketing department had been following my "16 Days in a Hotel" posts via Instagram. They enjoyed it all so much that they had a little surprise for us.
A goodie basket full of fun items!
It had a Stoney Creek Inn shirt for each of the boys.
Some caramels and popcorn.
Two coffee mugs.
And our very own belgian waffle maker!!
There was also a super sweet note from the manager inside. Thanks, Stoney Creek, for this thoughtful gift! And being a great home to us in the interim!
With that, Peoria was in the rearview mirror and I was in tears. oh.my.heart. Goodbyes are hard.
We had to baby the Durango along once again, since it doesn't like to tow and kept overheating.
But considering all that, we made fairly good time, arriving at the new house before dark!
Miles somehow found the consume box that had been in storage and then moved to the new house... as we unloaded he ended up as spiderman.
Two boys had time to try out the new master bathtub.
And Cooper made his bed on the couch, amongst the mess, since we are short a bed for now.
Owen got out his prized possessions and it was time for bed. Home is where the binkies are? :)
