Texas bound

We are about to attempt Daniel's first major road trip...we are headed down to Kilgore, TX for Cody's cousin's wedding. Daniel has been to Beatrice (3 hr), the ville (1.5 hr), and the Ozarks (3 hr) so far, but our gps says this is an almost 10 hr drive - and that's without stopping to feed him. The plan is to feed him the very last thing before we take off and then hopefully just stop halfway and then he'll be a starvin Marvin by the time we get to our hotel. But he's had 5 hr stretches on a number of occasions, so we're hoping he'll have some repeat performances today. He's usually awesome in the car (once we get moving - until then he hates being strapped into the seat) but yesterday he and I were doing a bunch of errands and he cried in the car the entire time. We'll see!!
