Unfortunately for us the trip ended with a road closure on the way home. A gas tanker tipped and spewed gas...But the bright side hwy was only closed for 6 hrs, luckily gas spewed onto dirt and not road. If gas has spewed (new word of the day) onto road, hwy would have been closed for a lot longer. Anyways 2 hrs without moving, dressed in pants, uggs and sweaters in the middle of the desert (102 F) with a 4 yr old who had to pee and a 2 yr old who was definitely passed her prime, a dog and one Grumpy driver was enough to make me crazy but hey it was memory in the making. I had my camera and lots of dirt to photograph.
So this is how we kept from going too crazy.
Luckily I had snack galore and a cooler full of soda! Not soo lucky: what goes in must come out, and when you're Andrew that's not a lot time! Another not soo lucky: soda and toddlers makes for loopy kids stuck in a small confined space especially when it's not something they drink regularly.
Nana had just fallen asleep and slept for the first 15 min, so not only was she lacking her beauty rest she was p*sd about being woken up. We had to keep the air off, for fear of overheating! See the sweat she was in boots a skirt , leggings, and a long sleeve shirt....and facing the sun~
Sooo we stripped...Nana wasn't comfortable having her picture taken at this point...but Andrew was~
Nana and too much soda!
Can u see the sugar in their eyes...it was pretty insane
