Driving Across the Country...

I decided to break up our trip into a couple of posts or I probably would never get this done. My brother was getting married on July 2nd in Duluth, MN and somehow my husband convinced me to drive almost the entire length of I-35! Now that I've done it, I know we can and probably will do it again. All the fears I had about what would happen with Aspen were much worse in my head then they actual were.

We started our trip on June 25th. That morning we went to a birthday party which was great for Aspen to blow of some energy. The car was completely packed before and as soon as the party was over we hit the road. Our first day we only traveled to Fort Worth and spent the night with my sister-in-law and her family. It was nice for Aspen to have a short 1st day and have some playtime with her cousins Cameron and Trevor.

TThe next two days were pretty uneventful. Lots of driving through the middle of America. Both days were easy with Aspen and we even got to spend some time in downtown Kansas City, which was really nice, although extremely hot! The second day we stopped in a town called Clear Lake, Iowa. It was such a cute little town with an awesome playground right in the middle. We ended up spending about a hour and a half because Aspen was having a such a great time.

We arrived on our 3rd day of driving in Minneapolis, MN around 3pm that day. It was so nice to be at Matt and Corry's house and finally start to relax. Aspen was awesome very happy to be out of the car and on top of that have their cat and dog keep her entertained.

More to come of the Dzubinski family vacation!
