This shot is from our recent roadtrip to Kansas and was taken with our new point and shoot camera (that Jody picked out) – the Canon Powershot A720. The kids did really well with all of the driving, but I’m definitely glad that we decided to break up the trip into smaller chunks (about 4 1/2 to 5 hours each day). The times that they both slept were particularly nice for Jody and I to catch up and talk without interruptions. Ahhh. That was nice. :)
The first person to correctly identify the band who the sang the song used in this post title wins! Wins what you ask? Oh, nothing really. But you’ll be a winner! :)
You can see more of Best Shot Monday over at it’s new home at Mother May I.
Stumble it!

That is so sweet! Sleeping in the car sure makes the trips go faster…I sure miss being able to do that myself!
And I am terrible at ‘guess who sang this’ but I am super impressed at Phyllis for knowing…yay for her!

My parents only live three hours from us, but I DREAD the car ride because my little M won’t sleep in the car. Not one second…not matter what time we go. She’s up and whining and talking and screeching (she’s two) the ENTIRE time.
I love the picture and am very envious.
