Spring Break 2012 - the first 2 days!

We left for Texas in the rain...the kids kept busy with reading, coloring and picking on eachother!  We left "on time" but 45 min from home I remembered that we had forgotten the camera...so we turned around and got it!

First we headed into Indiana....

Then Illinois...

And stopped for lunch at a great rest area that had a playground and hopscotch!

The into Missouri for a little bit...

And then Arkansas - I missed the real welcome sign because I forgot to turn the camera on....so this is the best I could do.  We stopped for the night in Forrest City, AK.

Back on the road again....the kids wanted to finish the drumming session that they had been doing the previous night...but 7:30 AM is too early for that kinda noise!  So...into Texas we went. 

Another lunch stop!  Can you see we are all standing...I think we were all tired of sitting in the car!

After skirting Houston...into Galveston we went!  We thought we were almost there, to our house, until the GPS said "drive 21 miles!"  We were west of downtown Galveston quite a bit.

We have arrived!!  The first view of the beach from our house!

The deck!  Waiting to get inside...so glad to have arrived!
