A Recap



In the past 36 days, we've drive from:

Home to Portland, OR and back again

Home to Seattle, WA and back again

Home to Seaside, OR and back again

and finally

Home to Boise, ID, and back again.

That's 33+ hours in the car.

With four kids.

And one fat dog.

Pulling into my driveway this afternoon has never felt so good. And to think we'll be here for two entire weeks before we hit the road again!

I'm about to spend around 46 hours in the car over the next 3 weeks. HELP....how did you survive? I've been contemplating ear plugs, large doses of Benadryl,(for me and the kids), sound proof glass between the front and back of the car, or just going to my happy place and not coming out until we are there.

We are heading out on vacation soon with 20+ of driving....each way! We might be crazy, but it'll be worth it (for all the fun that we get to have in between the 20 hour segments in the car :)
