Vacation 08-Day 1

Thursday, July 3^rd

We drove 10 (or so) hours today. We made it to Utica, NY. I have to admit that Joseph did a lot better than I expected! He wasn’t too fussy. He cried a couple of hours into the trip saying he just wanted to go home! It’s hard to reason with a 2 year old and explain why we couldn’t (wouldn’t) turn the van around and go home!

Brian thought it be fun to get a GPS for the trip. All of our married life I have been the navigator on our many trips! I was very excited to retire my job to our new “nag-i-gator”, her name is lil’ jaye. She did a great job and if she took us the long way…we never knew.

Joseph watching a DVD...pretending it's a laptop!!

Notice Wes in the background...you can bet he's not singing!!

Making the best of the situation!

It never failed...Joseph would FINALLY fall asleep and we'd have to stop

so someone could go to the bathroom. He woke up EVERY time!!

Taking a snooze while driving thru Ohio!
