Heading Home

Saturday morning, we woke up to a very icky Colt who was just radiating heat!  We finished loading up and we thought getting up and going would help, but it didn't. (we should have known.) He slept through breakfast and wouldn't eat or drink a thing.  He didn't even want to pick out treats to take home.  So, we ate quickly and Chase and I used the rest of our meal and snack tickets (13) to get treats to bring home.  We got in the car and headed out at 8:30am (Texas time).  
1,004 miles, 3 pit stops and 14 hours and 15 minutes later, we were home.  
I was proud of the boys on the way there but I was super proud of them on the way home.  The did amazing.  About 20 minutes into the trip they both fell asleep.  After a very short nap, the both woke up happy.  Colt was a whole new person.  I don't know what hit him but I'm pretty sure it was pure exhaustion.  We made 3 very quick pit stops, one stop at a gas station McDonalds to grab food that took three times as long as we would have hoped. The boys played and watched movies and didn't even fall asleep until about 5:30 and only slept for a little while.  
They did great!  Better than mommy! 
We're so sad the trip is over but so thankful for the amazing memories we made.  
Oh and by the way...If you ask Chase what his favorite part was, he will tell you Tower of Terror.  
Seriously kid?!?!?!
