Trip to Indy

We had the fun of traveling with our daughter, her 3 year old twins, 2 dogs and a loaded car.  Here are my notes from the first day:

 - Left at 8:00 am  Mimi in the back seat between the twins.  Good trip. Played do you see' which took about 10 minutes. Callum would say "Mimi do you see the cows?"  When I said 'no', he would giggle and say "they are hiding from you".  Movie worked for a while, toys were fine.  Stopped in Payson to potty.  Mimi promised a treat to Lily if she would go potty.  Big mistake!!  It took a good 15 minutes to choose a toy.  Mimi finally agreed to a 10.00 toy for Callum just to get them out of there.  It takes at least 10 minutes to unpack Mimi from the car.

Stopped for lunch in Holbrook at a city park.  It gave the twins a chance to run and play on the merry-go round and swings.  Problem with dogs in back - stuff keeps shifting.  Chauncy doesn't like at all.

Traffic backed up moving 2 miles per hour on I40.  So we changed plans and drove north through reservation land.  Will take a northern path and go across 70.  Kids were so good.  They are so excited about the motel room.  Phone was a big hit.  They've never seen a 'real' phone before. Lily tried to hide it in her back pack to take home.  She was also excited about finding a book in a dresser drawer and gave it to me to read. (Gideon bible).
