Off we go...

6/21: So today was the day... About 4 hours ago, we packed into the car like sardines. Armed with enough snacks, drinks and candy to last a week, we said our goodbyes and forged onward.

I was so nervous when I picked the girls up from their dad's house, I was shaking.  I hadn't cried until we said goodbye to him and his girlfriend, her daughter Scarlett and my step daughter, Jenna.  My heart broke a little.  

The girls shed a few tears as we pulled away from the neighborhood, and I had fully prepared myself for an indefinite period of crying, but was very surprised when we hit the freeway and a dance party  erupted with laughter and smiles... And questions about our route and what activities we had planned.
