Here in Alabama

Well we made it! A normal 10 hour long drive turned into a full 12 hours, with three bathroom breaks and a dinner stop. We are being pretty particular as to what the kids eat in the new car, so we stopped and ate cracker lunchables and oatmeal cookies. They did amazingly well, thanks to individual DVD players and blankets. They watched about three movies and played with some travel toys.

When we got here they were both awake due to a recent gas stop and they were both in a good mood. We weren't too sure how they would react to my parents but they went right to them. Goober decided that he wanted to play with Uncle Chris right then at 5 am in the morning so he went to wake him up. Ribbit, Adam and I all slept for another 3 hours while Goober watched movies, walked the dog, shot arrows and rode the motorcycle with my parents. When we woke up we ate breakfast and Goober was yelling at Chris " you have been sleep long enough". So Chris got up and played with him and he is now his new favorite person. He is following him around, coveting his knife collection, and telling him that he is wearing his pants too low. HA

Bay Minette had a Mardi Gras parade this morning so we took the kids to that and they loved it. Goob caught tons of beads and stuffed animals and waved the whole time. Ribbit is now down for a nap and Goober is playing with his new leapster. Later today we are going up to the park...FUN TIMES!!!!!!
