Day 6 mission update

We thought we left early enough to make it to sunset on the south rim of the grand canyon. Unfortunately, with pit stops and traffic on the entry road, we decided to scratch it and just check into our hotel so we could have a nice dinner and cake/ice cream for the birthday boy instead.

The drive here was nothing short of spectacular though, Greg was particularly enthralled with the drive through New Mexico.

Birthday boy

Happy 4th birthday to our sweet troublemaker. Sorry we are on the road and don’t have balloons, presents, cake or friends to play. But mommy and daddy love you so much and will do our best to put together a proper celebration in our new home.

 

Day 5 drive

We are pushing for Amarillo tonight. It’s a long drive from Nashville. Almost through Arkansas already though. Sunny skies now. We’re on a mission. No picture for the blog, there’s nothing to look at.

 

Day 4 style

Sometimes you need to sacrifice style for comfort. Greg usually refuses to leave the house in sweatpants, but has conceded that driving in jeans for hours isn’t the most comfortable idea.
