Day Two

I am finishing up my free continental breakfast, Misty has gone to get hers. We have carted enough food to our room for the six children, and gotten more than a few raised eyebrows.

Oh well...it's free...and let me tell you, when you are vacationing with six kids on a budget...free is a word you really like.

Yesterday was a long day of driving, my dad says that the route we chose to take south added on an extra 100 miles to our trip...so much for thinking we were smarter than the Garmin. The kids all traveled really well, no major issues, save a few emergency potty breaks and Olivia learning that she could wrap her little toes around the cord to Cameron's DVD player and unplug it...this caused more than one scene. All things considered the day was a success.

Oh...get this...you will be so proud...two girls from small town Kentucky hit Atlanta at 5 O'Clock...rush hour...AND there was a detour that took us right through down town...that was interesting but we did it with the hand of God on the top of our van, and calming my nerves.

We arrived safely at our hotel in Georgia for the night and took the kids to the pool for a dip and back up to shower and pizza. Talk about passing out when their bellies were full..they were zonked.

The babies are still sleeping, nope scratch that...I see one set of eye balls...now two sets...they are rising...it wont be long now until we are back on the road. We *think* from looking at map quest, we have about 400 miles to go today, so some less than what we drove yesterday.

Updates when we get there......
