It’s no secret that here at the ABE Blog, we travel. Also, it’s no secret that my family is not really the flying kind. We road trip it a lot.

Currently blogging from the car, we just left Amarillo, Texas and we are headed out to Florida.

We left Colorado at about 3:30 pm yesterday. School let out at 3:10, my husband was at my school at like 2:45, he helped me clean up after our absolutely insane First Grade party and we hopped in the Jeep and peaced out.

Pea is doing okay… If I have learned one thing about my almost 3 year old daughter thus far on the trip it’s that holy SHIT can she talk!

“Daddy, Junior, are you boys or girls? Do you wear panties or underwear?”

“Mommy, are we going to Pwowida (Florida)?”

“Wook, Daddy, I see cows!”

“No! I don’t wanna watch that movie!”

I thought I was prepared. DVD player for the car, her favorite shows, a boat load of Capri Sun (thank you Rachel), snacks, coloring books, markers, crayons, Kindle Fire…

Uh no. There is no such thing as prepared for a road trip with a toddler. But we are pushing through with visions of sunshine, sand, Mickey Mouse, castles, Shamu and most importantly friends and that sense of HOME in our heads. They same home is where the heart is… Well, we’re headed home, if only for 2 weeks.

FLORIDA…
