Our family trips usually revolve around baseball. Baseball has taken us to many different places, places that we would never go to without the game, and these places have given us tons of different experiences. Since we would travel so much during the season, going other places was just never a priority for Kevin and I. We love being at home, and so do our girls. However, we decided that we wanted to take the girls to Virginia over Spring Break to see my extended family. We mapped it all out and decided to drive.
2 kids + 18 hours one way = lots of love for the DVD play and DS.
We broke the trip up by stopping in St. Louis at Kev’s brother’s house. They moved to the area a little of a year ago and the girls and I still hadn’t been to visit. It was great fun to hang out with Dave, Talena and Harlow. Harlow is a year younger than Laney and the 3 girls had a blast together. You would think they played together everyday by watching them. The girls loved blowing bubbles on the patio. Laney had gotten a gummy stuck to her shorts and Harlow was just hot, so that is the reason for the missing clothes! This was about the only cute picture I got!
The next day we drove 12 hours straight to Virginia. We only stopped twice. That sounds crazy but the girls were rock stars! Unbelievably, neither one of them slept the whole way! And never once did we hear “Are we there yet?'” Ok…so maybe I said it a time or two.
