What?! Its almost over :(

Seriously?! Can we do that all again!? Amazing how time flys! Here I thought that driving cross country would seem to drag on and on, however, I'm pleasantly surprised how quickly this trip as gone! I think that because we mentally prepared ourselves for days of long driving, in my head I was pretty prepared and I started planning all these things I needed to lookup/work on, as well as the normal stuff: "What do we want for lunch?", "Where is gas and where is it cheap?", "Where is the closest Starbucks?" "Oh look, that company looks cool, what do they do there?", "Jelly Bean company?!", "Dogs need a break, wheres the closest dog park?", "We need some beer/wine when we get to the hotel, what are the liquor laws in this state?". You know, the normal questions your always looking up (which actually took up 80% of my time while driving)!

Right now we are staying our last night away from Seattle in South Oregon. We have already started driving by volcanos and snow caped mountains, which is really making me feel as though we are almost in Seattle! We have 7 hours to drive tomorrow with probably a few pit stops along the way!

We had such a great time driving past Oklahoma City going west. It was amazing to drive through Sante Fe, NM and I could seriously retire around the Phoenix area. It was low 80s when we were there and it was amazing! The dryness about killed me with 3 nose bleeds but nothing a little shower facial couldn't help! The pups had a great time playing with Diego and we were so happy to see Ramy and Dalia again! What an awesome drive up through California too! So many different types of climates, and of course our personal favorite, the Norbinator (aka, Norberto, Norbier, Norbs, Norbie, Norbert)! Brewski and Kyra had a great time meeting Norbert and playing with him and his "gang". We love visiting with them and cant wait to get the pups all together again!

I have some pics I will have to post later. I hate writing lots on the ipad on phone so I use my laptop to blog however all my pics are on...you got it, the ipad and phone :(
