Vacation Day One-Driving

Are you ready for a whole slew of vacation posts? We were gone for nine days so that's  a lot of stuff to cover! Let's start with the drive down. There was a pretty good amount of screen time and a lot of snacks. Our stops weren't too long though and we made good time on the drive. Looking out the window after it got dark I noticed a couple of very bright stars that seemed unusually placed and after a quick google search found out they are actually the planets Venus and Jupiter! Apparently it's a very fun time to see them because they're moving closer and closer together until Venus is going to pass up Jupiter to reach the star, Regulus. The kids picked out new neck pillows for the trip (Paige has been wanting one since our last Florida trip 3 years ago!) and that helped them fall asleep. We ended up stopping a couple hours away from Orlando to sleep for the night because we weren't meeting up with Pat's family until around noon the next day.


This was near the beginning of the drive-happy faces!

Sad face? What happened?!

Finally asleep!
