We went down to California for Christmas this year. Traveling with 4 kids to Salt Lake is a lot of work so preparing and taking the long trip (with Christmas presents) is no small feat but we did it! The drive home was HORRIBLE - it took us 8 hours and 45 minutes to get from Todd's house to Danny's house in Vegas. This is normally about a 3 1/2 hour trip. We were in serious traffic for HOURS and HOURS!!! The kids were really good and Tayson got his first true road trip experience of peeing in a bottle (there was no choice!) and now he loves it and would rather pee in a bottle than stop at a gas station. Oh boy - what have we started!!!
California was a blast. Amy and Todd were there too with their 3 kiddos so it was non-stop action the whole week (7 kids under the age of 6).
Here are the highlights...
