We loaded up in the Tahoe with the 2 boys in the back, Mamma, Ellee and I in the middle seat, with Pa and Phil sitting in the front and taking turns at the wheel.
Before we ever left Wichita the dreaded words "how much longer?" came out of Reece's mouth. We all laughed and said, "it's gonna be a long trip". A long trip it was, with many stops, for bathroom breaks, drinks, leg stretches, diaper changes and we were really beginning to wonder with 30 miles to go if we were indeed ever going to get there.
We pulled into Rochester and met Bro and Chels at Culvers. What is a trip to the north without several stops at Culvers for Butter Burgers and Flavor of the day frozen custard?.
We were then off for a night at Uncle Bro's house. Reece finally got to celebrate his 6th Birthday with a cake. Poor kid, every year it seems like we have to put it off for some reason or another and this year was absolutely no different. 2 weeks late but by golly we hauled that cake all the way to Minnesota so he could have birthday cake with Uncle Bro.
We then called it a day because Uncle Bro was playing in a 3 V 3 basketball tournament the next day in the Dells and told us we needed to be on the road by 5:30 a.m. So off to bed we went so that we would be ready to face the early morning back in the car for the last leg before we reached our destination....THE WISCONSIN DELLS!
Thanks Bro and Chels for letting us invade your space. You have a beautiful home and the only thing that would make it more perfect is if you weren't so darn far away. We love you both!!
Please stay tuned for more on the Bressler/Reece Family Grand Adventure!
