I found out Sunday around noon that the plans we had made (with my ex) to get my girls out here for a belated Christmas was not going to happen as planned. The plan was he was going to drive them out here on the 31st. So he tells me on the 30th that he wasn't able to come until the 7th. That was not going to work for me, since my whole family had changed their holiday to spend it together. So I decided to go there and get them. It is a 12 hour drive to Boone, Iowa. I left my house at 2:31pm Sunday and got there at 1:50am Monday morning. I left Iowa at about 2:30am and got home at 4:45pm. We stopped a few times along the way including the
Archway monument in Kearney, Neb. Which is unbelievably awesome! For me and the girls it cost about $22, but I quick decided it was worth it. And the girls really enjoyed it.
