We made it!

We are now officially done with the daily 8 hour car rides! It feels great! We are the the Fullerton's house, Aunt Laura's parents. We ate some home made chili and brownies, and sat the the table talking. Oh and there are dogs here! It's nice to be back in a home instead of a hotel room.

Yesterday we left Amarillo and it was sooooo cold! Made us all miss the warmth of Austin. Before leaving we decided to stop by the Cadillac Ranch, a piece of roadside art that consists of several half buried old Cadillacs.
People come to visit them and paint them. There were spray paint cans everywhere and we were able to find a few with paint still in them, so we decorated the cars ourselves! It is perfectly legal.





























After that we hit the road, finally leaving Texas, through New Mexico and then into Colorado. Here are some pictures of the scenery.



At one point I woke up from a nap in the back seat and this is what we saw. I had to do a video to capture the craziness of it.


So today we will go off and search for a place to live! We have 5 appointments with apartment complexes today, and a few houses to see tomorrow. I just home my car isn't frozen solid....

  2. Thanks Papi! Yes, apartment hunting has been difficult! But that is only because we want to make sure we look at everything!
