We're getting to old for this...

Drew and I COULD NOT WAIT to get out to Indiana to see his family. It's always a great time. Nice to get away from Maryland, nice to spend time with the in-laws, and nice to be taken care of for a week. (lol) The past couple times we've driven out, we've left at like 9 or 10 pm and just drove through the night. So, of course, that was the plan for this trip as well. Seemed like a good idea....EXCEPT! we hadn't really gotten any sleep this week. I got back from Colorado late monday night and went to work on Tuesday. That night we went to the FEE concert and hung out with the band afterwards so we didn't get home till midnight. THEN on Thursday night we (being the cool people we are) went to the midnight showing of New Moon, got home at 3 and had to get up for work at 6:30am. lol Then a full day of our friends wedding on Saturday. For some reason, we still thought it was a good idea to leave saturday night and drive to Indiana. LOL So here is how it went.....
We leave at 10pm feeling good. lol We stop at Breezewood at Sheetz as is custom for every Indiana trip. : ) We continue on and make it all the way to the Ohio line. Shortly after that the sleepiness starts to kick in. So, being the responsible adults that we are, we pull over on the side of the road (at 3 am) and take a quick little nap. Feeling better, we continue on our way and make it about half-way through Ohio. I take a turn driving, but after 40 minutes I'm done. SO we pull over again. This time we forgot to set an alarm and slept for an hour. OOPS! But Drew was awakened (is that the right tense?) by *TAP,TAP,TAP* on the window. A police officer had pulled over to see if we were ok and scared the CRAP out of Drew. lol The man was SO sweet, and made sure everything was ok, and told us that there was a rest stop about 6 miles up the road. At that point, FULLY ALERT, we got on the road again. lol We make it about 3 more hours this time, but our bodies are saying STOP!!! I can't stay awake anymore!!! lol So....guess what!? We pull over again. This time in a rest stop. We learned our lesson on the last stop. lol We both fall asleep and this time for an hour and  half. We wake up feeling refreshed and head into the rest area to get some breakfast. We get our starbucks and are heading over to Buger King for some healthy food (haha) when all of a sudden it hits Drew..."I don't have the keys!" So he runs out to the car and sure enough...there are the keys on the seat and the doors locked. AWESOME! We call the locksmith and $45 bucks later we're on the road again determined to make it all the way to Indiana. And we did!!!! Finally.
So that was our eventful trip. : ) A time we will never forget. And a lesson learned....We are to old to try to make it 10 hours in a car with no sleep. LOL Next time we'll just wait.
