The BIG Trip

We took 4 days to drive from East Texas to San Diego. And since we've done that drive so, so many times before (when we lived here years ago), we decided to take a northern and more scenic route. I'm so glad we did because it was such a beautiful drive and we even got to detour a little to see the Grand Canyon!


So these pictures are in the reverse order...so just image :)


Miss Hannah in the car seat...my kids are the BEST travelers ever!


California ( I think )... Simon & Andrew driving into the sunset

The same sunset, it was gorgeous that day!


The Grand Canyon...



It was so COLD this day! When we got there, it was almost raining and very overcast. They told us that we may not be able to see anything. Thankfully, we got there early and we saw a little bit through the fog. As we were driving away, we heard the news say that it was going to snow!


Route 66...
My shy, quiet boy ;-)



Silly kids!

Doesn't it look like "Red" from "Cars" driving through Radiator Springs :)

The night before we went to the Grand Canyon we stayed at the cutest little town on the historic Rt. 66... Williams, Arizona. The kids loved it because we they thought that was where Lightning McQueen was. They had the coolest little diners and a gas station that had a cool old car on display.


Not sure where...First time we saw mountains on the trip, though :)

I have to admit there were times when the road just would end and all seemed to be a big blur like this...

Another change of landscape...

I think this was still in Texas...
