Trip to Nebraska

On Friday, Rachel was off with Kennedy.  It was an inservice day at Kennedy's daycare so we thought it would be a good opportunity to take Kennedy by the new daycare.  They let Rachel take Kennedy to her future class for about an hour.  She was struggling a bit, but we think that she will ultimately settle in just fine.  We'll probably take her by once more before she officially makes the transition in October.

Jason made it home a few hours early because we were heading to Nebraska for the weekend.  We hit the road at about three o'clock in the afternoon to go see Tyler, Lynsey and Kennedy's new cousin, Brody.  The total time in the car is about eleven hours.  We were worried about Kennedy being in the car for that long, so we decided to split the trip into two days.  She sure had her moments that were... "challenging," but that is to be expected from someone her age.  All around though, she did about as well as could be expected.

Once we made it to Tyler and Lynsey's house, we were able to see Brody for the first time.  After we settled in, we watched some football.  After the game, we headed over to downtown Columbus for dinner.  On Sunday, we were able to visit and spend some time out on their deck before it warmed up.

Kennedy was a little unsure of the dogs when we first arrived. By the time we left, she had warmed up to the point where she was chasing Ozzy around the house.

We wished we could have stayed longer but sure did enjoy our time we got to spend with Tyler, Lynsey, and Brody. It won't be long before Kennedy and Brody are getting into trouble together!
