Our life on the road consists of hotels, lots of hotels! And some motels too. What's the difference? We're not sure, but we've told the kids that motels have doors facing straight outside instead of a hallway. Justin summed it up by saying that basically motels aren't as nice!
At a couple of the hotels, we were upgraded to a suite, which meant Kevin and I had our own bedroom. As much as we love our kids, it was nice to have a little space apart from the kids.
The kids' favorite things at the hotels are pools, free breakfasts (ok, the parents like the free part), and TV! Once we walk into a hotel room, the first questions out of their mouths are "Can we turn on the TV!"

The Holiday Inn where we stayed in Salt Lake City had a mini-water park for their pool. The kids loved it of course! And they had the place to themselves! As a side note, we've had several people ask how we had our kids out of school at this time of year. What a great benefit of homeschooling!
And for those who are wondering, the stuffed animal count is still at six (thank goodness!). I've had a request to put a picture of the animals up, so here they are:

The hotel's are what make our trip to MN each year, doable.... find a good one and it's a vacation all unto itself. :^) I loved the stuffed animals. FYI..... Megan is all about her stuffed animals - so if you see a really cool one -- great Christmas present for her!
