Am I in the car again?

We had a lovely evening last night. We stayed at Country Inn and Suites and had a suite. We wish we would have a suite all week. It had one room with two queen beds and another room with a couch, another TV, etc. We had the pool to ourselves which was fabulous after sitting in the car for so long. KN can beat me in laps now. Rats. (But it was very close) There was a shower by the pool that KJ liked to go in and then jump in the pool. Whatever. It was right next to an airport so the planes took off over the hotel. Thankfully, it didn't keep us awake at night. Somehow KJ got us all hooked in watching the home run derby on TV.

The best news was that the room was free from so many business trips that RP has had to take.

Next stop, the beach.

Made it!

We just finished dinner at the Texas Steakhouse (and KJ would like you to know that he has a mint.) We just have to drive across the street to the hotel. Yay. Thank you for all of the fabulous comments - they have been fun to read. Oh, Kristin has a mint too.

North Carolina, Here we are!

Wahoo - we are in North Carolina! Still have hours to drive, but no more new states today.

IPablo is starting... again. It's KJ's TV show he does that stars his stuffed monkey, Pablo (who talks in a baby voice.)

In case you are wondering

We are now in Virginia.

Everyone has had a nap (except RP who has driven the whole way. Yay.)

Just went through a mountain in a tunnel. Kids thought that was cool.

Back to my book.

Quote from KJ

"Are we going to go through any cities that have buildings?"
