To back track a little, our route across the USA went by faster than I thought it would. C-Man lead the way with his new GPS that was given to him by his dad & family. I received energy from a good friend of mine, Ronald McDonald. McDonald's had these Iced Coffees now and they are so good! I would have never made the last two days without the power of the golden arches. Thank you, Ronald!
By the way, I recommend the Vanilla Flavored Iced Coffee. So very yummy! But there are other delicious flavors as well if Vanilla is not your pick. Another note: McDonald's was almost at every rest stop we passed by on our trip. Ronald is taking over the US!

I knew we were almost there when Dairy Queen started popping up everywhere too. C-Man loves Dairy Queen and Wendy's for their chocolate shakes and frostys. He had two frostys in one day! I think C-Man might have to watch his calories more closely in the south. Fried foods and sweets are everywhere where I come from.
We had trouble sleeping due to the kitties being wide awake during the night time. Considering they had slept all day and were squeezed into a little kitty traveler, I understood their burst of energy when we got to hotels. My favorite hotel we stayed at was the Holiday Inn Express. They had a great continental breakfast and they upgraded our room to a king size bed suite for free! Check it out:
We drove 850 miles on Saturday and a little over 700 on Sunday arriving at my sweet mamma's house at around 11:00pm. She was waiting up for us and gave us big hugs to say welcome home.
We walked into the guest room and there were flowers and a Welcome Home Card. My mom knows how to make people feel welcome. My mom's husband (aka Muscle Max), bought our kitties a scratching post with cat nip. I am so happy to be back to my original stomping grounds. The south is and will always be my home, but where ever C-Man goes is where I go. "Over and out, Spicy Chicken." Now to start our next adventure: organizing a wedding!

I love the update of your week, wow, you've driven so many miles away already :(
I've been loving McDonald's iced vanilla sugar free coffee's for months now - how come we never went for a coffee break?!?!
I love the cute pic of the cats in their carrier, I can't imagine traveling with my Zoey-Cake = nightmare!
Glad you're home and safely there, miss you.
