Road Trip

For Memorial day we braved our first road trip with three kids up to Shallowater.  Surprisingly enough, we did it in five hours both ways with only one stop each time!!  My neck and back took a few days to recover from bending and turning to give endless snacks, adjust the movie, find the lost crayons and replace the pacifier, but we got there in one piece.  

Josh's grandmother, Granny hadn't met James Wright yet, and he was dying to meet her :)  We stopped and stayed the first night in Crosbyton so that we could spend some one on five time with her.  These two were really glad to be out of the car!  Running and dancing like crazy.

 

Little Mr. too!  Granny made a quilt for each of our kiddos and got to give JW his.  He loved the little fisher man on it :)

 

 I swear every time she held him, he just stared at her!

 The next morning we played a little checkers, by all the official rules ;)

Checking each other out again.

We loaded back up and headed on to Shallowater.  I don't think he got put down the entire time.  I missed getting pics with Rox, Aunt Jacque, and the kids holding him, but let me tell you, He was loved on!

 

 The girls LOVE playing with their cousins.  They pretty much stayed outside and took care of themselves the whole day.

 The next morning the girls went to big church with Cha Cha and Grumps and we got a little extra sleep.  We went out to lunch with josh's aunt and cousins.

 Oh wait...it's her Daddy!

 

 I ran into to coolest man alive while we were leaving.

 We hit the road and made it home by dinner.  Sweet bigs with their little!!
