Our RV Adventure Days 2 and 3

Sorry it's been so long since I've written about our adventure!  It was difficult to write while on the move, and while in Texas, I was just too pooped by the end of each evening to think about writing up a post.  So, I will do my best to catch up now that we are home safe and sound.  :-)

I think what I loved the most about the rv trip was how much my kids really enjoyed it.  My boys are really tall and cannot fit comfortably in our minivan for any length of time. (imagine a serious case of knees in the chest x 3!)  They were able to stretch out, play games of cards, get up if needed for a drink, etc.  When we finally did arrive on Monday afternoon (after an all-nighter pulled by my sweet hubby to make sure we would get there on time), we were greeted by two of my friends.  It was so good to see them! (forgive my I've been in my same clothes for 2 days look, lol!)

That evening, and the next day (Tuesday), the Kiddos made fast friends with so many!  The night we arrived, there was a big bonfire with a chance to meet and greet with the already hundreds of people who were there(they were expecting over 2,000 by the beginning of the conference) There was bike riding, playing of games and even Kiddo #1 flying his airplanes.

On Tuesday evening, there were the opening "ceremonies" and we were welcomed by the cadets who are currently studying there and some other speakers.  The campus is the International ALERT academy.  ALERT stands for Air Land Emergency Resource Team. (they train firefighters, police, rescue workers, EMTs, etc.)

I look forward to sharing Days 4 and 5 with you tomorrow!  :-)
