(Note:  I wrote these excerpts while on the road but waited to post them until we got back…  Hope you enjoy reading about our escapades.)

Today was awesome, other than having to get up at 4:15 in the morning!  We left Cali by 6:15 having fed the girls and filled the van with ski gear, way too many suitcases and lots of yummy food.  (We really believe in the way we are eating and so we definitely want to maintain while we are on our trip.)

Last night I made yummy ham and cheese sandwiches with a smear of butter on baguette for today and also prepped some tuna salad for tomorrow.  So instead of sitting in a restaurant or going through a drive threw (God forbid!), we stopped at a lovely little park in Mesquite, Nevada.  The girls made a bee-line for the play ground equipment to get their wiggles out while I got the food out.  After we all washed up it was lunch time.  Some extra play time and we were back on the road again.  Dinner was tacos and burritos at Chipotle just north of Salt Lake City.  Not bad…  when most everyone else are drinking soda and eating “McWrap” somethings!
