The journey begins!

So we are off! This is a picture of our home for the next 9 days! Everything is soo big that I was across the street and up a drive way just to get this semi decent picture!
Our first stop is Barstow, California. This drive took us 7 hours. It actually didn't even feel like 7 hours! I suppose its because it was our first day! The drive for the most part was uneventful, I drove about 2 hours, went into a semi-truck parking lot and couldn't get out, so Charles had to do it for me and then he ended up driving the rest of the way. I did not plan it, put it seems like a good scheme to get him to drive!
We did come across some interesting characters along the way... at a gas station there was a bride and groom pumping gas! Yeah that would of been cause of divorce for me. Didn't realize that you where low on gas before the ceremony dear?
Then there was the little boy that decided that the deli case at Subway was either too dirty for him or he was trying to taste the goods on the other side because he licked the whole thing over and over again!
Also at Subway, Lauren decide that she wanted to go live with another family and sat down with her new little brother until I asked her what she was doing! The little boy never even turned his head ( I think he was freaked out!) She was shocked she swore it was Caleb!!
Anyways thats about it for our first day, we are now off to the Grand Canyon!!
This is the sunset in Barstow, California.
