Transplant Games 2010 Day 1

This year we took a road trip to Wisconsin for the US Transplant Games, basically the olympics for transplant recipients. It was our first real vacation with the babies, thankfully Grandma and Grandpa Moustache joined us. With Neal busy most of the time I needed 4 extra hands. We rented a mini van and headed off on what would be an 8.5 hour drive with no stops. We ended up making 4 stops, only 2 of which we got the babies out and we made it in 10 hours. Not bad at all. The dvd players were a life saver. The adults almost went crazy from Yo Gabba Gabba, but the babies could not get enough. We only had about 5 minutes of whining right at the end of the trip. The babies car seats were closer than normal, so they got to share some toys.





We left at 5am, so I figured we would have some more sleeping in the car, but really only 2 very short naps all day.



After arriving at the hotel we decided to take the babies swimming so they could enjoy themselves a little. If they were not totally exhausted before swimming they were after.


The babies first kiss! Ok, it was a little staged since we did not have the camera ready for the first one, so it is really the second. They are just starting to kiss and wave at one another!

Gwen is our fish, she loves the water!






Grady preferred to hang out with just his feet in the water. Hopefully we can break him of this!

After this long day. the kids and the adults were out before 9!

It looks a little empty between the babies in the back seat.
