"VACATION"




























































































We made the 600 mile trek to Blackfoot a few weeks ago and I've just recovered enough to share some pictures and a few "notes to self" for our next road trip.

1. Driving all night goes very well because the kids slept the entire way. However, things went down hill when we arrived at 8 a.m. The kids were "ready to rock" and Kent and I were "ready to crash!"

2. Jack=car sick! (even though he can't tell us because he doesn't know what it is!) Yes, he spewed chocolate milk and cheerio chunks all over about half way to Missoula. Poor kid. This happens almost every time we drive somewhere on windy roads. (Kudos to Kent for remembering to throw a roll of paper towels into the van just for this reason!)

3. Ben can ride for hours as long as he has sunflower seeds, Harry Potter audio tape and a bb gun.

4. Plan to stay longer! We never have enough time to see everyone and do all the things we'd like to do.
