Time to Move... Colorado or BUST!

It was finally time to move our crew to the great state of Colorado.  Matt and I have been married for four years now, and we have moved five times.  You would think this would mean that we are pros at the moving process, but that doesn't seem to ever be the case.  Regardless, this trip was a complete Estes adventure!

Daddy patiently waiting to pick up the Penske truck...

... And then deciding that some entertainment was needed because they were SLOW!

J doesn't like moving boxes because he knows they mean change. 
In his defense, he has moved twice in two years.
We had to keep him occupied outside while we packed so he wouldn't
have a breakdown...

N's serious moving face...

Daddy thought we should be creative in our packing.  N wasn't so sure...

Off we go!  It is completely against all Snider logic to leave at a normal time of day...

Yes, I drove 27 hours with these two goons! It is a good thing they were in the truck...

Riding in style...

We got a foldable wagon from Sam's Club before we left.  It was
a HUGE hit!  Every time we stopped we would get the wagon out and
let the kids ride around. As you can see, J loved it!

Uncle Richard accidentally locked the keys in the truck, so we had an
extended break waiting for AAA.  Mommy was enjoying the beautiful outdoors!

BATH TIME!

Daddy got the flu in Illinois so we were stranded for the evening.
It was a good thing because tornadoes went right through the area we
would have been travelling.  I never thought I'd consider the flu a big blessing!
Uncle Richard enjoyed having his own full bed in the hotel for relaxing.

Thank goodness for hotel laundry rooms. J was my little
laundry helper the whole trip!


Seven days later... WE MADE IT TO DENVER!
