I don't know how current this Product Bulletin is but you'll get the general idea:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/iosw/iore/prodlit/768_pb.htm Setting up load splitting/balancing when HSRP is present generally requires that there be at least two subnets or VLANs. One subnet/VLAN has router c as active and router d as standby while the other subnet/VLAN has router d as active and router c as standby. This may not fit into your architecture very well, given that you stated the remote offices were small. You may want to think about having a single router at each end with two T-1s and a cold standby router (CSRP?) in the closet. Just a thought.
