Part UNO: Driving and Daydreams

I finally got all my pictures from vacation downloaded (almost 300, or was it 400? And I still wish I'd taken more!), but after looking through them, there was just no way I could possibly fit our whole vacation into one post! Sorry, it's not gonna happen! So, for today, you get to see what its like to drive fourteen hours straight with three children. Oh, and just so you know, we left at 3:30 AM, yes that is AM! It was actually worth it, since we got there at 4:30 in the afternoon (you gain an hour when you get into Washinton). So without further ado, here's the pics:

I always start out by taking pictures of all the beautiful scenery. Lovely places we saw:


But then I got bored and started taking pictures of us. Here's Dave in true Dave fashion:

This is what happens when you've been driving for a LONG time, sticker wrappers get put on toes...

Bethany was so excited she couldn't fall back asleep, it took her until about 5 or so, can you tell she's still sleepy?

Here's my "self-portrait". Yes this is my "pretty" mirror, and yes, I stared at myself for awhile... Hey, it was a LONG drive!

My warm toasty socky feet, aren't I artistic with my photography?

And a couple more "scenery" shots.



So, more tomorrow or when I get a chance! :) Hope you enjoyed!

4 awesomeness!...and attractiveness!:

Loved it. I felt like I was on the trip with you, without hearing the kids screaming, crying and whining... or is that just my kids? Tell Dave he has good nose-picking form. Impressive.

I stare at myself all the time too. Its so hard not to! right?

Our faces are a blessing and curse all at the same time :)

14 HOURS AND 3 KIDS?! I thought surely that must be impossible. Your family should be in the guinness book of world records.
