Yes, we did just make two 13-hour road trips in a week with 3 kids 5 & under. It was actually not nearly as bad as I was expecting. The kids did great in the car and loved the beach. We logged some serious movie-watching hours, but when you spend longer in the car than the kids are normally awake, you do what you have to do. It was really nice to have a week to not think about stuff that needs to be done around the house or before the kids start school. Eleven people in one house with some pouring rains did make things a bit hairy at times, but we still had a great time and got to spend some time at the beach every day. We were once again reminded of how thankful we are for our families & the opportunity to help our kids make memories.
This week is back to reality! We have a week full of catch-up work, kindergarten orientation, IEP meetings & back-to-school night. Ready or not, here we go...
