Day 1

Day one was pretty good! The garage is organized (enough for now), with plenty of room for stroller parking and Tom Jones hung on the wall.

Dinner break found Thomas enjoying a beer he hasn't had since college....

While I ordered a Red Stripe (to go with our fried pickles!).

In case the scale wasn't clear in the first picture...

After dinner took us to Ikea where we picked up some supplies to be used in Days 2 and 3...

As for Carter, my mom reports that they made it to Arkansas safely. She also insists that Thomas and I get down on our knees and thank the lord for giving us the best child ever. Apparently, he was a most pleasant road-trip companion.

DAY ONE REPORT FROM ARKANSAS:
After being such a good traveler, Carter ALSO went right to sleep when I put him to bed. (We did give him a good hour to unwind from the road, so he was late going down.)
AND, Thomas, he did not fall off the bed!
A really good day (and night.)
