Floods & Family

Nothing is gonna stop us from seeing our family! Although we really didn't realize what we were up against when we set out on our adventure to Louisville ;)

I have to laugh at ourselves because we must have been under a rock, while the rest of the world was aware that Arkansas was under water we were obliviously and ready to drive right through it...or so we thought! We were making an impromptu road trip to Louisville and had braced ourselves for 16 hours in the car but little did we know we had a lot more in store for us. Apparently the south was flooding and even major highways were closed. We kept hitting detour after detour in the middle of nowhere. No cell reception, no gas stations, no food. We really should have packed snacks and books on tape for the ride, note to self for the future. Although, after a 20 + hour drive to Kentucky I think we'll be flying from here on out!

But it was all worth it in the end, we made it to Kentucky in time for the Derby and had some great quality time with the Johnson's/Vize's!!! Wouldn't have changed a thing!
