The drive to Utah is hellish, no matter how you slice it. On the way there, we decided to do it "Steve" style, with a stop at Reno for the night, and continue the drive the next day. Things to remember: Don't leave at 5 pm . Ever. We were stuck in Pleasanton for what felt like 4 hours... totally pointless. I can't believe people do that commute everyday. I would die. The stay in Reno was really nice, but the drive to Utah from there is just long no matter how you slice it, and it's Nevada. On the way back, we drove right through the night "Alie" style, leaving at 5 pm, and pulled into our house at 4 am. Twas pretty miserable, with the kids throwing up every hour pretty much (probably either motion sickness, or 24 hour bug), but we got home as fast as we could. That drive was not our favorite, but it was worth it because of this:
Since there was no playing snow in the valley, we drove up to the canyons and spent literally 20 minutes playing until they were done! (I guess they truly are Californians). But, we got some super cute photos of course.
We had some super fun moments with my dad... and I especially liked a dinner that we spent together- just me and him- just catching up. Wish we could spend more times like this :)
While we were in Utah, we also blessed Sebastian at Steve's parents. They made some great food, we had hte blessing, and spent a couple of hours just hangining out. It was really nice :) Sebastian seemed to have a lot of fun!!
Almost everyone in Steve's family- we are missing you Miriam and Nole!!
These cutie pies are so in love with each other. It really is too bad that we don't live closer- they get along so well... we really have to plan regular trips more often.
Nothi'n better than grandparents.... That Sebastian is the cutest/happiest little boy!!!
