Yep, we did it without stopping....28 hours!!!! We left Kentucky at 1:30 Saturday and arrived here at 3:00. The kids were soooooo good. The only near miss was when Seth said he had to go....we found a sack and he was giggling, ready to let it go into a sack when I found a quick stop by the side of the road, one of the "gas only" kind of scary stops, smelled a little like the outhouses in the campground at Pine Valley but it served it's
purpose. We got through Kansas and into Colorado by daylight and little Jack actually went 12 straight hours without as much as closing his eyes. The kids busied themselves with movies, treats, nintendos, leapsters, more treats, little naps, and whatever kids do in cars for 28 hours and it was just fine. We're glad it's over but it wasn't that bad at all.....but I'm the grandma. Now Shana would proba
bly have a whole different take on it. We, or rather, I was going to take pictures at all the state signs but Shana wouldn't have it....she forged on stopping for nothiiiing.......I did snag a few pictures from the window as we drove by just to show that we really did it. We did stop for a really good meal at Denny's and I included a cute picture of Seth getting his Mac and Cheese and grapes. Anyway, there' s no place like home. When Drew was sittin' up to the bar this morning eating breakfast and watching my little t.v., he said...."
...this is the life". Now that's what a grandma likes to hear.

Wowzers! Sounds like a good time...I'm glad it was you and not me though. Although at some point in the next two years we will be making quite a similar voyage. Glad you made it.
