Looks like we made it!

Six hours in the car with the only children in the United States that do NOT sleep a wink in the car. Man what I wouldn't give for a car nap. That ranks up there with full body massages and spa pedicures. They just don't know what they're missing.

So one stop along the way the convenience store clerk told me there was a tornado there on Father's Day. Guess that explains this:

How about those new fancy metal light posts. Can't beat old school. Check out the wooden light post. Yep - it's singing "I'm still standin'....better than I ever did..." to that metal job.

I just loved the juxtaposition of old versus new and the irony that the wooden pole withstood the storm. LOVE that!

Check out my crazy daughter. I remember telling Eva when we first brought her home that she was a CLOWN and man was I right! This is her adorable smile (NOT) when I get out the camera.

Silly girl.

We made it to Grandmother's house so all is right with the world. Now that my entire family is sleeping, I'm going to dig into mother-in-law's stash of decorating books. I always leave here full of ideas. Just one more reason why we make the trip......kids sweet kids and home sweet home.
Sweet Dreams!
