since we knew we'd have a two day drive to arizona for the varga family reunion in pinetop, ryan took friday off and we got started. we had to drop a car off at david's for ryan to drive after he flew home, so we left after the morning traffic. we decided to take state highways across texas instead of i-10 so we'd hit more towns along the way. we tried to find a park every time we needed to stop to feed bonnie.
our first park was in temple, texas. we knew we'd hit the jackpot when we pulled up and saw this:
coolest toy ever!
isaac spend a few minutes on the playground, but both boys spent most of the time in the huge rocket.
cody got to the top without any problems and climbed up and down over and over again.
isaac needed help getting down from the bottom level, but still managed to climb to the top so ryan could climb to the top to help him down :)
we had lunch there too, so bonnie and i hung out for a bit while the boys played.
we stopped at a couple more fun parks, a sonic for dinner, and ended up in post, texas for the night. bonnie slept about 10 hours that night. so restful after a long day of driving. long sleep clearly agreed with her :)
there's nothing better than a texas-shaped waffle in the morning. i totally want a texas waffle maker for my house!
i packed a bucket of random stuff for the boys to play with. they spent a large amount of the morning wearing their goggles like they were underwater.
they were such good travelers. there were a few complaints about sore bottoms, but mostly just good playing. they liked it better when i sat in the middle seat (they were in the back for the trip) and read books or talked to them.
we got to the cabin in pinetop right around dinner time. i fed bonnie and she ended up spitting up all over me and the chair i was sitting in. she hasn't spit up like that for a long time, but i'd guess it was just sonic not agreeing with her!
