Road Trip: Day One

The girls and I headed out yesterday morning. Well, morning was our intention. We left at about 11. Before we even got out of town, we lost the new DS game... the one I had planned to keep them the most busy on our trip. So 5 minutes in to the trip I was pulling car seats out. Not quite what I envisioned, and I never found the game.

I had planned on doing 8 hours the first day and 4-5 the next. In retrospect I wish I'd broke evenly in half. Those 8 hours were painless, fun even. How much fun we could have had if we stopped at half of the fun little places we saw on our drive. I think we will try a couple on the way home.

We got in to the hotel last night around 8:30 (have I mentioned I love laptops?). On the same little road as our hotel was a carnival of some sort, so we wandered over to check it out. It was closing at 9 so we just walked around checking it all out. We're gonna head back over for a few before getting on the road this morning. Hopefully I'll have pictures to post soon.

I have to say, the girls are fabulous on road trips. They are getting to be so much fun. I love, love, love older kid stage. Babies are cute and all, but big kids rock.

Sasha just rolled over out of her sleep and rubbed her eyes. The first thing she said to me was "Look, I wake up on trips to!" haha, lucky thing.
