Who doesn't love a good road trip? Cranking your favorite tunes, indulging in your favorite snacks, and enjoying the feeling of freedom that you only get from the open road. College road trips with my besties were some of the best times of my life. Nowadays, family road trips look a little different. We've still got music, but usually it's something from PAW Patrol or Peppa Pig. We've still got snacks, but instead of my endless handfuls of peanut butter M&M's I make sure to bring grapes and celery sticks to keep the kiddos healthy. And sure we have some freedom on the open road, but the inevitable rest stop visit every 50 miles or so isn't exactly the same. 

Sure, road trips have a different feel when you've got a family and young kiddos, but I wouldn't trade it. You have the unique opportunity to make lasting memories and see things through your kid's eyes. Enjoy these special moments while they are young because at some point, they won't want to take road trips with you any longer- just their college friends. 

Here are 30 funny memes that'll get you through your first family road trip as a parent.

    Is this even a question? Little Caesars is great, especially after you just get home from a road trip.
