Road Trip

Driving to Arizona was our fourth big road trip of the year.  12+ hours in a car (one way) with a toddler and a baby is not my most favorite activity ever, but visiting family is, so I suppose it's worth it.  This time we decided to break up the drive.  On Saturday morning we drove about 6 hours down to Santa Monica.  We played on the beach and had a picnic, then walked on the pier and got dinner.  Jilly's draw dropped approximately 6 inches when she saw the ferris wheel so we had to go for a ride, which was so fun.  After dinner we put our sleepy girls in the car and drove a couple more hours to Palm Springs where we stayed in a hotel.  On Sunday we drove the last 4 hours to Mesa and were so relieved and happy to finally be out of the car and with family.  (More on the rest of our trip to come!)

That picture of the sunset is breathtaking! Jilly looks like she loves the beach as much as her mom. :)
