We hit the road the first day of our trip at 5am all loaded up with mugs of coffee, sausage balls, a huge bag of snacks and lunch for later and tons of stuff to keep the kids entertained.
They had trip journals, activity books & colored pencils, DVD player with movies (even some surprise movies to open on the way) and my Kindle loaded with fun stuff in Kindle Free Time Accounts for each of the girls.
We made good time, saw a lot of boring traffic for the first half of the day and then the scenery started getting pretty good.
We even managed to enjoy one another's company along the way, no really, honestly!
Why don't you people believe me.
See that last picture there in the bottom right corner. Yep. That was awesome.
We stopped and had a picnic for lunch at a park in one of the towns we passed through and decided to stop and stay in Dolly Parton's hometown in Tennessee so we could get up the next morning and check out all the fun local attractions before our scenic drive through the Great Smoky Mountains.
Gotta love those kids, especially the faces they make. Always entertaining.
Next. The Beach.
Try to contain the excitement.
Nope can't contain it.
*squeal!!!* I love this!! Keep it coming....
