Jacks First Hurricane Evacuation/Road Trip

Jack had his first road trip at 3 & 1/2 weeks old. We were already planning to drive to League City for the 4th of July weekend and to celebrate my parents 30th wedding anniversary, but due to Hurricane Alex we left a few days earlier. We left Weslaco on Tuesday around 5:30 pm only to make it to Harlingen to grab some dinner and feed Jack. Harlingen is only 30 minutes down the highway from Weslaco, so we didn't make it too far before our first stop. We went through the drive thru at Wendy's and then I climbed in the back seat with Jack to feed him. 30 minutes later we are back on the road and headed to League City. Stop number two happened in Odem, Texas. Then stop number three happened at the Buc-ees in Wharton, Texas at midnight. We finally made it to League City at 2 a.m.. This was the longest trip home, ever! It ended up raining more in League City, than down in the Valley over the weekend.... We should have just stayed put!
