We're Back!

Its going to be a little unusual for me, a post with no pics. I know its going to take me entirely too long to go through all my pictures, move some that I dumped onto the laptop to make room on my memory cards and actually create a post.  I am sure there are millions of you checking my blog daily to see if there are any new little Pomeroy updates so while I"m waiting for the first few hundred of my pics to download I thought I'd do a quick rundown.

We have been on a huge fun road trip for the past 3 weeks.  It takes a little bit of crazy to load 3 kids (one 18 months old) into the backseat (side by side going across I might add) and drive from Texas to Florida.  From Florida to Nashville.  To Detroit.  To Kalamazoo.  To Chicago and home.  That's right- we logged 3900 miles in our little SUV and Chris and I are still married and all 3 kids made it home with us- AND we'd do it all again!

I'll do a running picture log soon- but a few funny things along the way

Our first fight of the trip was called " Stop looking at my foot" I'll let you guess who that was said by and to.

There was a fight over a baby blanket heading to FL, Patton was unwilling to share. Even though he didn't want it, and just stuffed it down beside his seat.  In FL I bought the girls identical blankets for our remaining drive.  They fought over whose was whose. Yep, identical blankets and that still led to a fight. Who woulda thought? So everyone has blankets right? Right.  Everyone is happy right? WRONG. We had no less than 5 fights about the blankets.  Patton's blanket was no longer good enough for anyone, including him.  Let's just say it was good times.

We watched an endless loop of Mickey Mouse in the car.  It haunts my dreams.  The girls were sweet about watching it over and over, it was that or listen to Patton cry.  Or he was just too darn cute asking for it we all agreed- he'd start waving his hands back and forth, kicking his feet saying "Hot Dog Hot Dog" (Which is the closing song of Mickey Mouse in case you live under a rock.....or are lucky enough to not have to watch that show).

Other than all that fun- it really wasn't bad.  As long as I kept the food and candy smokes flowing in the backseat it was pretty peaceful.  Chris drove the whole time, partly because he can't stand not being in control of his ride and partly because my driving scares him. Fine with me, we made it home with no tickets, I am sure the same could not be said if I had been behind the wheel.

I promise I'll do my best to get some of the fun pics from our trip on the blog asap!
