we're baaaaaack......

we made it.
we took 3 nites and 4 days to drive phx-indy. and 2 days, 1 nite indy-phx.
nutso.
we definitely had some adventures with a few little bumps in the road, but all worth it.


we captured beautiful open skies....
we may have had a few pouty moments.....
but for the most part, it was wonderfully enjoyable.
and then back to reality......
and maybe a few little episodes like this.....
and then some would be happy, but others not so much.....
and then back to laughs, giggles and pure craziness.
but we made it. and the kids were actually very good in the car. the treasure box was a hit. we enjoyed route 66, eating at as many diners, drive-ins and dives that we could, lost 3 teeth total, L turned into a 9 year old, got on the radio 2 times and called about 100 times, saw the st. louis arch, caught tons of fireflies, played in creeks, only lost my mind 1 or twice, made crafts with gram, visited all our favorite friends and family, ate lots of ice cream, joined in on another round of vacation bible school, 3 out of 7 threw up ( 2x in oklahoma city ), ordered brains at a steakhouse (S and L actually ate them!), visited museums, went on country drives, hit up the whispering bench..... and so many more exciting memorable things.
but it is always so nice to be home and sleep in my own beddy bye.
