So much happened over the 2-1/2 weeks we were gone to Utah, my head spins at starting this post and how to break it all up.
How it all began: I've been homesick for the past couple of months wanting to see my family and friends in Utah. It wasn't until we were planning our Race weekend and John's parents flight plans that being able to go all came together. Theywanted to go down to Steven & Silvia's little girl Leslie's baby blessing the 1st weekend of August. I wanted to go to Utah to visit my family and Friends and so we collaborated and they drove the van while I manned the children and we both were awarded with a trip to Utah.
We left Thursday morning by a 8:15- only 15 minutes later than planned, not too shabby for me and overall the kids did really well in the car. Going down it was pry a total of 15 hours in the car. There were snacks and movies, books on tape, dolls and writing activities to keep the girls entertained. For Tate...anything I could think of: food, movies, balls, games of Peek-a-boo and naps.
We stopped in Boise overnight for a quick visit to see Aunt Audrey & Uncle James and the kids.
We pulled into Ogden around 3ish on Friday and said a teary 'See you on Sunday' to Grandma & Grandpa Payne. I'm glad Grandma & Grandpa Harris were only 15 minutes away with the tears the girl shed.
Tate was quite the gentleman-helping me bring the luggage in. He did attempt the Larger luggage, but found this to be more his size.

Reward
That Night I had a Girls or I guess a Mom's Night Out With Shelly & Laura where we found a good spot on the lawn to watch Lady Antebellum and swoon & Dance to Tim McGraw. Good company, good music, good views. What's not to like? Ok maybe that was all an understatement to the screaming i did. It was a GREAT Concert!
The cherry on top was being able to see my long lost friend Kelly Davis who happened to be there as well.
More to come...
