ROAD TRIP!

Last week was Amelia's spring break and we spent the week on a road trip to Atlanta. We put over 1500 miles on the car. We had a great time and loved spending the week together. Ben actually had to work in North Carolina on Tuesday and Wednesday. It was about the halfway point so it fit in well with our trip, especially since that portion of the trip was paid for!

Keeping entertained in the car:








I gave the girls these cookie sheets from the dollar store to use as a desk and they could also do magnets on them.

We had such success with the "store" on our Michigan road trip that we did it again. I loaded up on goods and treats from the dollar store and every hour in the car the girls could buy items with pretend money that they earned by being good. They loved it. Even though we had loaded up on DVDs from the library before we left, the girls actually spent very little time watching movies.


Poor Oliver...the girls were always storing all of their stuff on top of him. Amazingly, he did really well in the car. We put him in between Elsa and Amelia and I think he liked the attention. It was great to have Amelia on pacifier and bottle duty.
