After deciding what we should do and who we should send out for grandma's funeral- flying the family out was out of the question. The cheapest one-way flight was $360. So we thought we could just fly Andrew out and me and the boys stay home. Andrew didn't want to go out alone and talked me into driving out (something I said I would NEVER do again). So we hurry and packed our bags and left at about 2 pm. We drove until midnight and stayed at a hotel in Colorado about an hour past Denver. The next day we got up to start our trek again. We hit a little snow storm that didn't even last an hour out of our days drive. So we were very lucky! The trip wasn't AS BAD as last time. The kids did much better but it still is just a WAY TO LONG drive. We will probably do it a couple more times while we are out here since Benson is going to be turning two and then we'd have to pay for 4 plane tickets. But flying is so much better. It was good to see family and have a HOMEMADE (not fast food) meal after two days on the road.
