I'm finally getting around to posting about Bodie's Birthday Weekend
We had a crazy road trip weekend over Labor Day weekend for Bodie's birthday. 1166 miles and 5 states in one day - here are the pics!!
We started our trip Friday Evening. We drove to my Parent's house in Midway, Utah - got there about midnight. Bodie did not sleep one wink on the 6 hour drive....UGH! I was sooo frazzled by the end of that drive! There was a little festival in Midway that weekend, so we went to the Parade on Saturday morning. My Dad was driving a 1950 something tractor in the parade, so we went and cheered at him!! Bodie was so excited to see Grandpa in the parade on the tractor!! (the camera died during parade, but I got pics later of the tractor . We spent the rest of the morning at the festival and shopped our butts off. Saturday evening, we had Bodie's birthday party with all of his cousins and my family. We also did the surprise part of the party for my Dad as well (who just turned 78). Bodie's favorite part of the party was the Bubble machine and the tractor on his cake.
The pics didnt turn out to good of the cake presentations and gift opening - it was too dark outside.
We got up early Sunday morning and drove to Afton, Wyoming to see Justin's Sister and her family. It rained most of the day sunday, and MOnday morning, we woke up to HUMONGOUS snowflakes!! Bodie had so much fun watching the snow fall but none of it stuck long enough to play in. Monday evening, we hung out in their backyard with a campfire and enjoyed the Cool weather. It was a big change - it was 110 degrees when we left home and in the 30's when we were in Wyoming!!!
We hit the road to come home on Tuesday morning - was a 9 hour drive home. I was soooo proud of Bodie though..he was such a good traveler!! We stopped every about 3 hours so that he could get out and stretch and go potty. He stayed dry the ENTIRE trip home and even pooped in the potty at the 2nd stop! We havent been "actively" PT'ing until after this trip, but I think he's ready!!!
Anyway...here is our pics!!!

(for those of you wondering which states we drove through.....coming home we were in Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, Arizona & Finally, Nevada.) We even taught Bodie the names as we were going through. He says WYOMING so cute!!

Wow - you are so brave to have even tried a trip like that! I'm glad it went so well. It looks like Bodie had a great time.
