Detroit Rock City--4th of July 2009

Happy 4th from the Lindseths!

So this year, Cubby and I decided to live on the edge. We did something we've never done before. We took the kids on a roadtrip! We drove the 12 hrs up to Cubby's parents who live near Ann Arbor and Detroit. It was an adventure! (Prior to this, the longest they'd been in the car was 2 1/2 hrs when we went to Kansas City...and that was a tough drive!) Much to our surprise, the drive up went extremely well. The kids were happy and well-rested. We made stops and, even though the last two hours were tough, they really were good. (We can compare it b/c the ride home was a bit more challenging!! Oh well, not everything can be easy, right?!)

Well, we had such a fun time w/Grandma and Grandpa Lindseth and Auntie Tessa! The kids just thought everything was great and played until sheer exhaustion overtook them! Here are some highlights from our trip!

Whee!!!

We just love playing w/Auntie Tessa!

Thank you so much for the fantastic time! We're so glad we were brave and daring (hey, it was for us!) and made the trip! We love you and miss you already. Please come and visit soon!
