Getting to See the Nighttime Sky

The drive home from California went really well...for a while. We left Kyle and Gina's just before dinner time and made it to one of the last In n Out's before the kids would fall asleep and those wonderful burgers would no longer be an option for us. Well after the kids were all changed into pj's and snuggled into their seats they got to watch more movies and around 11 I turned it all off to get the only remaining awake children (Payden and Lincoln) to sleep. And it worked. 


Until about 2 in the morning. The uncomfortableness of sleeping while sitting up finally started getting to them and they reluctantly started waking up. So we let them start watching movies to distract from the restlessness. Payden especially was loving getting to be awake at such a weird time and all being together and watching movies, she exclaimed with delight "I love getting to see the nighttime sky" and Lincoln's response was "yeah, I didn't know this is what it looked like in the middle of the night".
