Road Trip - Stage 1

We headed out on Friday for our drive to Seattle, and it went much better than I could have even imagined. On Friday we went roughly 10 hours to Yakima, WA, and stayed the night. During the drive we only had one 10 minute meltdown and it was about the sun getting Rylee in her eyes. I wish I would have had the camera out to capture the DRAMA, it was unbelievable. ("Owww! MY EYES!")
We made two stops, once in Boise and to let her run for about thirty minutes, and then once about 3 hours later to let her play at McDonald's Playland. She was so cute in McDonald's. Everything she did was frantic, as if she would never get to do it again. She would run and take a bite, run to slide, run back for another bite, everything was at turbo speed.
She watched two movies, but her favorite was Jungle Book, wonder where she gets that from. (Her Daddy) The funny thing is one of the characters in Jungle Book is a puppy, and every time they come on the screen she sceams "PUPPY". We do not know which character is the puppy yet.
Saturday morning we drove about three hours to drop Matt off at the most intense paintball place I had ever seen, it seriously was Rambo style! Matt, Jeff, Scott and Jeff's friend, Jud, spent the whole day out there together, while Rylee and I finished up the drive to hang out with Aunt Lisa.
We are very encouraged by how well Rylee did on the way up here, but we are keeping our fingers crossed for Wednesday as we drive to Sacramento from Seattle.
