Home Again

After a total of 40 hours in our van during a span of nine days with three kids and a dog (who honestly all traveled well), I can certainly say, I don't feel like traveling anywhere anytime soon.

We had a wonderful time on our trip to Oklahoma and Texas to visit cousins, and aunts and grandmas and grandpas. We quickly realized that we need to carve out more time to stay when driving cross country. Four of our nine days were traveling and then after splitting 2 1/2 days between our families, time really flew.

We packed in a lot, from my Mom's retirement party to the Dallas Zoo we were constantly on the move. Towards the end of our drive we did a particularly long leg without stopping. Avery was over the whole being strapped down in his seat and started yelling "Get gas! Get gas!" Everytime he noticed we passed a gas station without stopping, he started scream crying. Now it feels good to be home!

Sorry no trip pictures today, the computer is refusing to recognize my memory card.
