And here we go!

All packed up and ready to go. Branson West, MO to Houston, TX- the longest drive of the summer (hopefully).


First heated debate of the trip before we left with Mama and Papa Stokes. Go North to the highway or South through the hills? Highway won out, we are saving our car sickness for the Rockies!

Max and Lucy- stoked they didn't get left behind in Branson!

Rock down to...


We made it to Houston, by the skin of our teeth. And after almost being run off the road by every truck on I-45 (apparently 65 mph is not an acceptable speed in Texas), we came up with a new motto for our road trip - "If you don't like it, pass it!" 
Sounds like a bumper sticker in the making to me.

    I love the beginning of your blog--and I can't wait to catch up with the newlyweds in California! (It's not EVERY son-in-law that lets his mama-in-law crash the honeymoon!!) -Mama T

    I republished my comment to correct the typos--can't have the teacher making grammatical errors online! Enjoy the next leg of your journey--and happy tenting! Mama T
