On Monday we finished packing the car, stopped at Trader Joe’s for more snacks, and finally hit the road. We stopped A LOT along the way. Jean suffers from anxiety which manifests itself in a frequent need to stop for bathroom breaks, and that means she is ultra compassionate whenever the kids expressed a need for the potty. Without Jean, I would have been waaaay more reliant on pull-ups and diapers, but with her, the kids got to travel with dignity intact. She was a huge blessing. (Also, since she was so happy to take them to the potty, I got to just scroll my phone whenever we stopped. It was so nice and I felt so lazy!)
We made it to Boise around 8pm. We went to Whole Foods to pick up some food and ate it outside of the Boise Zoo to let the kids burn off some steam and run around. Then when we got to our hotel (the Home2 we stayed at the last time we were in Boise), we changed into swimsuits and let everyone get their wiggles out in the pool. Then it was showers, part of a movie, and then bed!
