Day 3 : An Apple was Born






Day 3...DONE! Joshua is doing great. We are so blessed to have such a good little traveler. Our day started with everyone getting to sleep in. Joshua awoke about 7:30am stating, "It's morning Mommy, time to get up!" So Day 3 started. We got on the road about 9am figuring we would likely run into traffic... well Montana does not have traffic, Josh stated we need to start loosing the thought of big city lifestyle... traffic, mega shopping, and lots of restaurants. We are going to be small town living now. Every time we come up on a city we think it is going to be huge and even the bigger printed named cities on the map only have 2-3 exits! Wow what a different perspective than what we have been use to for 13 years! So the story of the day has to be Josh giving birth to an apple over breakfast. I was eating an apple for breakfast.... Joshua decided he wanted to cut into the middle of it. The seeds were shown and I told him not to eat the seeds or he would grow an apple tree in his belly. Joshua stated no you won't, so Josh thought he would play a trick on Joshua by eating the seeds and then burping up a whole new apple. Then Josh looked at Joshua and stated oh no.... and appeared out from behind was a fresh new apple.... I thought Joshua's eye balls were going to pop out, he could not believe daddy grew and produced an apple from eating the seeds! What a family moment! We are now in Shelby Montana, we traveled roughly 300-310 miles today. We are 30 minutes below the Canada/US border. We planned it this way so we can get up earlier in the morning to cross the border first thing. We are all alittle anxious to cross as we are towing all of our household goods and are unsure if they will make us unpack everything we have. I called and talked with the border control agency last week and they stated it would be 50/50 on if we have to unpack everything. We will see.... hopefully it will go smoothly. The pics today are mostly of the beautiful scenery we drove through. Thanks to all who have said prayers for us. Everything thus far has gone smoother than we could have imagined. Blog more tomorrow. Much Love 3J's & Grandpa:)

Wow... those pics are so pretty! My mom was just visiting "home" in MT. You are so right... all small cities. I told my mom she was amish when they moved there! Good luck at the boarder. So praying they see that you have your son and grandpa in tote and you just can't handle unpacking!!! Love your blog. Keep posting.
