Our Thanksgiving Weekend Adventure: Part 1 - We made it to the Petrified Forest

Activity bags are the best!  Coloring books, word searches, Sudoku, music and movies.   Man, I almost wished I was a kid in the back seat.



We decided to leave as soon as we could get out of work Wednesday evening.  We made it all the way to Amarillo that night.


We stopped at a Sonic in Wichita Falls for dinner.  It was a disaster - they took forever and then didn't get our order right and then didn't come back when we told them so.  So, we ended up going across the street to Subway to get Bryan something to eat....


We stayed the night at a La Quinta in Amarillo.  We crashed pretty quickly and got up early to get back on the road.



Welcome to New Mexico!!  



He's happy back there watching a movie.  I think he was watching Up.


We made it to the Petrified Forest just in time.  We had about an hour left before we had to at least be in our car heading towards an exit.

We made it to the Petrified Forest right as we were supposed to be getting in our car and heading towards that exit... but Bryan and I jumped out to take some pics really quickly anyways.  :)
