Mini Vacay Day 1

So my hubster is not one to stay in a job he doesn't like. And he really didn't like the last one so he got a new one. Yippee that people think he's good at what he does. Double yippee that he decided to take a week off between job 1 & 2 and we get to go on a mini vacation to the Southern Oregon coast.
The bummer is that there is a lot of driving between our house and pBrookings, Oregon. The double bummer is that my oldest son, Kie has supreme carsickness. Like, anytime youtakeacurvyroadtothebeachandeat asnackinthecaryoubarf carsickness. And today we drove I-5 which has some moments of curvy road. And we had sandwiches, watermelon and Doritos. Not a great combo.
It's actually kind of sad. He said he though he was going to throw up and I thought he was just trying to get a sour patch kid. We had an OT tell us once that sour things can settle an upset stomach. Anyhow so we pulled over and I was taking my sweet time getting him water, a towel and out of his seat. Luckily he mostly got the towel in time and his carseat (after a bit of poured water) was saved from the explosion. His clothes did not fare as well. Which is why there is a pic of me at the hotel laundry. Yippee!
Once we got here the view from our room, and proximity of the beach TOTALLY made up for it though!

Rocket ship

Someone decided that today he needed a rocket ship. So here we go. This is the reason we save boxes and go through so much duct tape at our house.
