Road trip with Rami...

Last weekend I had the fun oppertunity to go on a trip with my cousin, Rami and her kids. Our husbands decided not to go which kinda sucked, but next time we've already decided, they're coming! So 7 hours in a car with 5 kids wasn't the funnest thing I've ever done, but it worked out! We also all slept in one room which was a little cramped, but it was kinda fun like a big sleep over! The first night we didn't get into town till after midnight. Then the babies decided they wanted to stay up and play, so we didn't get to sleep till 2:30am. We were pretty tired the next day because we got up around 5:30am to get ready to go to the parade. We saw a little of the parade then met up with Jess and my cousins for lunch. That was fun! Then we went to the pool at the condo we stayed at. It was fun, and Maddie loved it. Logan jumped in the pool all by himself which was a pretty big deal. I was proud of him! Then we saw the amazing fireworks by Liberty Park. It was such a long day.. we got back around 11:30. Luckily we slept in a little on Saturday morning. We got to see Jess and family at the park and the kids had so much fun together. I don't know what we were thinking, but we decided to go to Sweet Tomatoes for dinner. FYI.. 5 kids with 2 adults.. not an enjoyable dinner out!! We didn't get the chance to say 2 words to each other! It was nice to come back and go swimming again then go to sleep at a decent time! We got up early Sunday and headed back to Vegas. The trip back was better than I thought it would be. The girls actually took a good nap. The older kids watched movies the whole time. It was great! Thanks Rami.. we had a great time. We'll do it again sometime!

Laci, would you mind emailing Jess or me that picture of our family. I love it! All of us actually look happy and that is hard to come by in a family photo.
I had fun seeing you on that trip! Your children are dolls!
