We hit the road bright and early, with the minivan packed up like a jigsaw puzzle, thanks to the DH.

The road trip boxes were in place and everyone had their lap tray! First order of business? A movie! Of course. Sigh. I sense, “It’s a road trip.” is going to become my new mantra. The kids went with “Bolt”, a classic in our vehicle and a movie that I know almost by heart. However, I have never actually seen it, only listened to it from the front seat. This trip though… headphones! And they worked. And we were able to work the highly sophisticated minivan technology which meant we got to listen to our own music! Thus far our soundtrack has alternated between classic rock and country. Hey, it’s a road trip.
