I made it! I was a little nervous about driving 7 hours by myself but it ended up being ok. Of course I’d rather drive with Adam, but it’s nice to know that I can do it by myself. Caffeine helped. A sugar-free Red Bull was brought from home.
I also brought lunch so I wouldn’t have to stop. Cheese and jam sandwich.
That’s 2 slices of Dakota topped with 2 oz of 50% reduced fat white cheddar and Crofters Concord Grape Spread.
And a baggie of carrots.
I did stop once to pee and I grabbed a half sweet coffee for the 2nd half of the trip.
And then I was there! My dad took me to rent a bike as soon as I arrived (there’s a path near my grandparents’ house that we’re going to use this weekend) and we went out for a short ride.
Soon enough it was time for dinner.
Baked asparagus,
breaded baked chicken,
a rice mixture,
caprese salad,
and fruit on the side.
After dinner I took my grandpa to a local baseball game and then the whole family ended up meeting for ice cream.
That’s a small twist with marshmallow.
And now it’s bed time.












Please send our love to Jim and Kay and Happy Independence Day weekend!
I despise road trips, the only way I’ll go on one is if I’m driving. I hate not being in control of the car!!! Have a great time while you’re away 🙂
