On the Road Again

We left CA yesterday morning and had a great first day of travel. It was better than I expected, to be honest! Kaidan and Nolan rode with Bryan in the "big truck" and Ellie and Ashton rode with me in our truck. The coolers were filled and a box of surprise toys were sitting right next to me, just waiting to be opened by little hands when the need arose. With the dvd players both installed and seat belts buckled, we were off! We drove for two and a half hours and then stopped by a coffee shop for a quick play time. We found a General Patton Museum to explore and ended up staying for an hour! It was actually a really neat place. They had army clothes, warfare, dishes, tanks, & various paraphernalia. We arrived at our friends' home in Phoenix around 3:30 and the kids played the rest of the evening.

Today, we're on to Van Horn, TX. It's a longer drive, but with unopened movies and toys, we should be okay! Thanks again to those of you who helped with gifts for the kids and snacks for our trip. Love you all!
