We finally got everything packed and made our two day road trip across the country, it has been a whirlwind week but in the best way possible! There is so much to share but since I have a very limited attention span I won't put everything that has happened in the last week into one gigantic post. So lets start with the road trip adventure....
Packing was nothing short of a MASSIVE CHALLENGE, but with the help of friends and family we got everything into our tiny Uhaul.
There is absolutely no space in that trailer. It was seriously like a puzzle in there!
Ion and our friends Thomas and April drove Thomas' Pathfinder with the Uhaul and my best friend Vyonne, my sister Amanda, Juneau and I followed behind in my car for the 1700 mile journey. Everyone spent Friday night, our last night in South Carolina, at Ion's parents house where we hung out and swam in the pool with family and friends and then went to bed early so we could leave at 4:00am. Everyone was up by 3:30 Saturday morning and we were in the cars at 4:07. (With lots of Sugar Free Redbull and 5 hour Energy in hand!)
We went south through Georgia, (but don't worry, Amanda snapped into a Slim Jim as soon as we hit I-20)
Alabama,
Mississippi,
Tennessee,
and FINALLY to Arkansas where we stayed with our friend Alex for the night.
We kept ourselves awake with extreme amounts of caffeine, loud singing, and Tina Fey's Bossypants. Go. Read. It. Now. It was that awesome. Plus all of the ladies in my car, Juneau included, have a slight obsession with Tina Fey and Liz Lemon.
Needless to say after 16 hours in the car on day 1, we were all more than excited when Alex took us to a local Fayetteville Brewery for dinner.
I think Juneau enjoyed the trip the most, you couldn't ask for a better road trip companion. (It was probably because Amanda kept sneaking her beef jerkey...)
