Hitting the Road...Along With Half of America

All This Week's Warren, Watchung, Green Brook & Long Hill Kid Activities

By Roseann Sicola, Macaroni Kid Warren November 20, 2014
We're prepping for a Thanksgiving road trip next week.  In a perfect world, we'd reach our destination in 9 hours.  I'm praying we make it in 12.  I'm going out this weekend to buy new movies to hopefully keep everyone quiet for at least half of the trip, and a bunch of sugary snacks to keep them happy for the other half.  We'll see.  We road-tripped in August to Vermont, but that was about half the time, and the last time we made this trip to North Carolina at least 2 of my kids weren't talking much.  So, now we have double the noise and double the opinions as to whether we watch Despicable Me 2 again (my vote) or Looney Toons (my kids' vote, which I hate!)  My younger, unmarried brother is driving with us this year.  I think that this trip may ensure that he never has kids.  

I'll be publishing next week, but probably not until after the turkey.  Look for the newsletter next Friday!

The winner of the one dozen cookies from The Sweets Shoppe is... LAI, comment #5! Congratulations, and contact me at roseanns@macaronikid.com to claim your prize!
