My mom arrived on Tuesday, and we had a couple of great days playing around, but more on that later. On Thursday, we took two very small boys, woke up very early, and hopped in the car to drive to Tennessee to visit their Great-Grandma Rose.
I don't have any pictures right now because we are happily enjoying our trip, but I wanted to fill everyone in on our journey. I'll post pictures of the fantastic vacation that we're having later.
We woke up at 5, well actually 4:45, just because he thought we needed to go ahead and get on the road. We packed our car, got everything ready, and were on the road by 6:30. We were wary about how the trip would go. 12 hours in the car with two boys under the age of two does not sound like a great time. However, it turned out to not be too bad.
Here is a summary of the trip: Ben ended up taking two several hour naps. Evan watched two several hour movies. Ben ate two complete bottles in the car. Evan ate an the contents of an entire snack trap in the car. We drove through a little rain and a little snow. A traffic jam stopped us for about forty minutes. We had a lovely lunch at McDonalds in which Ben tried to each chicken nuggets and dropped an amazing amount of food on the floor. Evan kept his big boy pants clean and dry the whole time and we visited three gas station restrooms and the McDonalds restroom...twice. Ben had a meltdown about an hour out, but I don't blame him. We were all ready to be out of the car by that point.
12 hours after we began, we arrived in TN. We're so glad to be here and are enjoying a great visit. We'll fill you in on all the details soon...not looking forward to the drive home!
