Spring Break...Day 3

Today started out as a lazy day. We weren't in a hurry to get anywhere. We got the car all packed up, and left the hotel at 11 am. We moseyed over to Walmart and did a little shopping (had to get those Little Swimmers for Abbie!). We grabbed some new movies for the kids...they're better entertained by movies they haven't seen before. Even Abbie was watching LABYRINTH.

It wasn't a very long drive to the four corners. It's in the middle of nowhere. If you're in the area, it's worth stopping in. Now when the kids talk about it and school, they can say they've been there.

It's 2 pm. Do you know where you're kids are? Hmm, Ashley's in Utah, Abbie's in Arizona, Andrew's in Colorado, and Austin's in New Mexico. All accounted for!

I told Austin to lay down so I could get a picture of him in all four states at once. For some reason, he thought he needed to pretend he was dead. So the other kids thought they needed to do the same thing.



Except for Abbie. She just wanted to run and be free. Every time we get her out of the car and put her down, she takes off. I'm getting the feeling she's getting tired of being in the car...

After Four Corners, we headed to Flagstaff, Arizona. Yep, it was a long drive, but we made it without too much fighting and arguing from the kids. We hit a time zone, so we're an hour behind Utah time. So after dinner, Aaron took the kids swimming and I put Abbie to bed and got some peace and quiet. What a nice treat for me!!

Tomorrow we're headed to the Grand Canyon. We've been having a ton of fun. We don't have our trip completely planned out, so we're just kinda going where the wind blows us. After that, we might head over to Hoover Dam. Should be fun!!
