We attempted our first road trip as a family of 6 to Sioux Falls for a couple of days over break. Everyone did well, slept well at the hotel, adjusted to napping in the car or the stroller, and we had a nice time visiting Grandma and Opa. Matt cracked me up because he kept referring to this as our "big spring break trip!" Yes, it was for us, but in comparison to many of his peers who were heading to tropical locations out of the country, the statement just made me laugh.
A stop at the Jolly Green Giant. The angle of this picture is no coincidence. Very carefully planned by a certain 10 year-old. This also happens to be the G-rated picture. I couldn't bring myself to post the other option.

Keepin' the peace in the back seat!
Snuggled up close to watch a movie
He gets carsick so is banned from the DVD player.
He gets the coziest ride of all!
Testing out Opa's new chair lift
This is a lot cheaper than an amusement park!
We had the hotel pool to ourselves
Chicken Fight!

Looks pretty fun - that big spring break trip of yours (and it was big compared to ours!). I supposed you might as well get used to those kind of camera shots...after all, you do have a houseful of boys.
Looks fun! What did Adam do instead of watching the show? Poor kid. I'll be calling you for road trip advice/ideas if we ever do one.
Looks like fun! That is our kind of trip. Low-key, not too far from home, and a bit easier on the budget. All while building great memories :)
Looks pretty relaxed and peaceful
