How do you get your girls to eat road snacks? My son would rather starve than eat something I brought from home!! haha I love that you wrote this, We would not go on vacation if it wasn't for the mother-in-law taking us along, or the good friends that let us crash their homes while we tour. You said it best, it's hard to budget travel. I always think, it'll only take $100 for gas there and back and we can just eat at so and so house. then we wind up spending money on emergency car parts and random medicines and all the sudden our trip wasn't under the $300 mark anymore!!

We're pretty lucky in the food department as far as the girls go. They're not picky at all and I'm so proud of them for that!!! But, coming from our small town, all of those big "fancy" restaurants are super tempting, and they do beg us to dine out or stop for special snacks. Sometimes we indulge ;) We learned the hard way about leaving some "cushion room" with money when traveling. When we went to Memphis in May, we had only made it to Poplar Bluff when Jason's water pump blew! We had to spend money on a tow truck, parts and repair, and labor before we even got to Memphis!

You are lucky!! Those girls are the best kids!! Happy smiling polite and genuine! Ah the water pump is one of the worst one, no amount of peeing in the radiator will help! Seems like everytime we wander from our little town, we wind up with undiagnosable car troubles. wind up having to call in favors from friend's and their husbands (@hethur240). Thankful again for the mother in law, she gave us her old van when she upgraded so we wont have to worry immediately about car problems on our next trip!
