Our Vacation!

Brain Damage!  That's what was wrong with me when I had the idea to drive to California for our vacation.  At least that's what I concluded last night on our last 2 hours to King City when Ethan had had enough!  Not even the Mama Mia songs could calm him down.  Needless to say we arrived without any real bodily damage, although Aaron still has a headache from being beat with the Atlas.  Now I understand why my mother carried wooden spoons and Tupperware lids on trips.  Like the time we drove from California to New York in our 1985 station wagon. She must have gone through several spoons on that trip!  Ahhh, the joys of parenthood! 

Anyway, our trip out here was great, considering having three kids strapped into carseats. We finally managed to leave town (not the house since we had to go back three times for things I forgot) about 2 pm on Thursday, 3rd.  We ended up staying in Burns, Oregon the first night, which the kids LOVED because they each got their own twin bed.  The next morning I realized Dave and I should have taken their beds since they were so much better than ours!  

We finally made it to my Mom and Dad's Friday late afternoon and the kids were SOOO HAPPY to be out of the car they just ran straight for the trampoline.




Look at those happy faces!!
