Mapquest has door to door from my house to Laura's at 5 hours and 53 minutes. When I have driven there in the past It is usually about 5 hours, I figured with stopping to feed Brooke and any Sydney "issues" it would probably be about 6 hours. On the way out it was six and a half hours, on the way back, well.........
*Left Ruth's house at 6:15
*Stopped at Fiesta Mall to pick up David's Droid with the Ghost Armor applied
*Took route 60 instead of 202 since the freeway was closed (thats another blog)
*Both kids screamed until we got to Avondale at 7:15PM
*Got Gas
*Went to Walmart and bought pacifier (Brooke's was left somewhere)
*Got Milk
*Got Starbucks
*Got Cheese Rollup for Sydney at Taco Bell
*Drove to Blythe (so flipping tired decided to spend the night at 9:45PM)
*Whole family slept till 10:00AM
*11:00AM left Blythe
*1:30 PM fed Brooke at Starbucks in Cabazon
*3:30 PM (5 minutes from home) remembered that David's truck was at Burbank airport.
*4:00PM Dropped David off at Burbank
*4:25 PM Arrived Home
So 22 hours after leaving Ruth's house we arrived home. We were planning on driving home at night so that the kids would sleep and so that I could wake up in my own bed Sunday morning. Had we actually stayed in Phoenix we would have left by 7:00AM and arrived home several hours earlier than we did. I estimate that trip would have been 7 hours.

OMGoodness! How could those two adorable girls cause so much trouble?
Why didn't you fly to PHX with REM and back with DT?
Been there, done that, never want to do it again! :D But it made a great blog post!
That's just funny. Sounds like a very long day.
Travel with little kids, ahhhhhhhh. Planes trains and automobiles...
Wish Lo luck, I will fly for the first time just me with both littles 6/13.
So happy to not be in that car :/
