We decided to drive through the night to Florida since the kids would travel better that way. Boy were we ever WRONG! We departed our house at about 9:00 p.m. and had the kids already for bed. Emerson was asleep about an hour after we left and Sawyer dozed soon after. However, Sawyer then woke-up and became the co-pilot for Jason until 5 a.m. He slept only 1 hour from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. By then Emerson had woken up to tell Sawyer to quiet down a few times and then went back to sleep. Finally at 5 a.m. I climbed into the back and managed to get Sawyer to fall asleep while I slept next to him. When we arrived at Jason's cousins house the kids were no worse for wear. By time we arrived to the Florida border both kids were going 90 miles a minute. They did manage to stop long enough for the orange juice that is given out at the Florida Welcome center and for a picture with the Welcome to Florida sign. This was Sawyer's first trip to Florida and Emerson's third.
