My wonderful husband, came up with another way of keeping the kids involved in this adventure South. We set up a daily budget, keep receipts and subtract through the day from our starting amount. The kids took turns recording our expenses. Their awareness of how much it costs to fill the gas tank, how much it is to buy subs all became a reality.
We then rolled over the left overs into the next day.
We had a long drive of 12 hours into the Tar Heel State of NC. It rained most of our driving time. Thanks to Red Box and electronics for keeping the kids entertained. I had an amusing, comical road partner who sang songs from the 70's, 80's, 90's. He was my personal stand up comedian and radio.
So thankful for a lovely day of happy travel.
We arrived at husband's cousin's house for a relaxing evening of hospitality. Thanks Brian and Vaishali for letting our kids hang out and be goofy and for your holiday hospitality.
