Road Trip II

This one won't be as significant as the last journey.  We're going to South Dakota for a family reunion.  I don't know how we're related to these people.  I only now it's on my mom's side of the family, and a nice lady sent an invite and there's two catered meals. 

This trip I think we're packing much more.  We only had Quin for a few weeks the first time around, and since then we're much more vulnerable.  It's amazing how forgetting a bottle or a diaper or a certain toy will scar you so deeply.  Now we pack for ten babies. 

Although it's not Q who benefits the most from previous experience.  Paco can never get comfortable in the car so I made this patented Paco Pad.  It gives him more space to lie down and elevates him just enough for Sarah to glare at him from the back.

I also imagine she'll be staring at my head and pining to slap may bald spot.  Because business is slow and we're broke I'd want to smack it too. 

Much appreciation goes out to our son who'll be buying the gas.  I forgot to turn off his automatic savings plan and was thrilled to find his little nest egg in my ING account.  

And now we're off, tired as all get out, as last night our new neighbors stayed up late and taught the entire neighborhood drunken Spanish. 

Vamanos!
