Out of Texas and....

Greetings from Baton Rouge, LA

We had originally planned on staying another day in Houston and then doing the drive all the way from Houston to Tallahassee, but earlier in the trip, realized that was absolutely nuts! (About 14 years ago, we did the drive from Tallahassee to Houston in one day, with a 2 1/2 year old! You would have thought we would have learned that time. Funny thing is that Mari was fine on the trip...I was the one that was going crazy, maybe it is because 2 1/2 year olds don't really entertain you all that much!) So, we cut a day off of Houston and broke up the drive by stopping here for a night.

Nothing much else to report for now since today was just a driving day. We are all very excited about getting to Tallahassee tomorrow. We get to see family! Dad and Patti. Mari is very excited because she has been saying for days that she can't wait to be able to talk to someone else besides us (So, Dad and Patti, watch out, she might talk your ear off). Mari is going to have a very rude awakening when we leave Knoxville, TN and then don't see family again until we get to Grand Teton! That will be a very long spell!

Well, that is all for now...Dave is asking for the computer.

Talk to you soon-
Nicole
