Road Trip!

Last week we decided to go on a road trip. We took cousins Andrew and Tiana and headed south. This last spring we bought a timeshare and wanted to check out one of the resorts. We had a fabulous time. Mary isn't the best in the car on long trips. She usually awesome for the 1st couple hours, then awful for the next couple, then finally decided she will just whine for the next couple, and then finally, when everyone is ready to pull all their hair out she decides she will go to sleep, or she passes out I haven't decided. Eliza is awesome she can ride forever as long as the destination is good! She is such a trooper! Andrew and Tiana were great too. I think Andrew could have slept the whole 10.5 hour drive if Mary wouldn't have been pestering and spitting on him so much!

When we got there we checked out the accommodations, totally awesome, and then we all headed to the pool. That is all we did for the next day and a half. The kids loved to play in the pool then warm in the hot tub. Eliza, Andrew and Tiana got really good at jumping into the center of their tubes. Mary just loved to think she could do whatever she wanted! It was actually relaxing for the adults too! When we weren't in the pool Andrew was either shooting hoops or all of them were begging to go to the arcade. We did get a few games of ping pong in too. Way too much relaxing fun!
We decided to take the beach route home. We thought it would help break up the trip. After 8 hours in the car we stopped at the beach in Oregon and played until dinner time and then drove 3 hours home. It was a quick trip and one we will likely repeat! We had so much fun! I love my family!!!!!!
