Vacation -Day 1 - The Long Drive

Now that it is September, I thought I'd post about our summer vacation.
In July we took the first two weeks to travel west to visit family (yes, I know I'm a little behind on my posts). On July first we started on our two day drive.

This first picture is not a pond/lake - it is a cornfield. If you look in the lower right hand corner you will see cornstalks that are still above water. There were many fields that had patches like this, because of all the rain we've had.



The boys getting out a little bit of energy at a rest stop.


The scenery!


Bordem, silly putty, and creativity!!


More scenery! (This is what you get when you have a new camera and a nearly 1200 mile drive :) ).


Last rest stop, before we will arrive at our stopping point for the day!! J.D. and K.J. tried to convince us we needed one of these. So sorry no room in the van - stuffed too full with all our vacation things! DARN!!!!


Despite traveling over half of the distance in one day - the boys did great. They really wanted to visit family!!
