Vacation Day 1

A few months ago we found out that a college friend of Simon's was going to be getting married.  We decided to make a real vacation out of our trip to New Jersey for the wedding.  First step, we had to find somewhere for poor Cheyanne.  Doggie Daycare for 10 days was pretty darn expensive...so we sent her to the farm.  She was thrilled.

Cheyanne is not a fan of cars.  At all. At least she hasn't thrown up in the car for awhile.  And a shout out-God Bless my sister with a newborn who willingly took on our dog for over a week.  Clearly she needed more to do.
So the next day we got started.  Our goal was 6 hours a day.  It seemed like it might be a long drive.  Thats a whole lot of time to sing Frozen songs, in case your wondering.  I can't get the video to upload, so you luck out on hearing yet another rendition of Let It Go.

We drove 5 hours to Wheeling, West Virginia, where we stopped at Cabella's. 

 
There is an aquarium inside, so the kids got a big kick out of that:

 And of course all these animal displays...also a big hit:

 And finally a shooting range.  So that made Simon's trip! ;) 

We ate dinner, drove another hour, and then checked into a hotel.  The day went much smoother then we feared it would.
