We took off Friday afternoon for a weekend with family and friends in Kirkland & Bellevue, WA. The typically four hour drive took about 6+ hours with stops for play-breaks and potty-breaks and we finally arrived around 9pm. The kids were so excited about seeing their cousins they managed to come alive and play 'til almost 11pm, which messed them up for most of the rest of the weekend. Oh well!
BIG THANKS to all of the people that hosted us this weekend.... Melissa for coffee, Kristi for water, Maureen & Karen for Sat. lunch and Sun. breakfast, Pat & Donnah for dinner and especially Chris, Tia and the kids for letting us base out of their house for a few nights. We had a great time and Carson is anxious to come back! After six more hours of driving and breaks today (although I can't complain about stops at Cabela's & Costco!) everyone is tucked in bed and sound asleep...
