We had a really fun road trip up to Utah to try and make it for Maci's blessing and to finally meet her and to also meet our newest nephew Randy. We left really early Sunday morning so that we could make it in time for the blessing but our plans soon changed when the tread flew off the front tire. Clarke thought it was so funny cause it was loud and bumpy he started laughing. Aubri and I had just been talking about how we didn't really know how to change a tire about 30 minutes prior and then this happened. Luckily a really nice highway patrol man stopped and totally did everything for us. He said we were very lucky that usually when this happens the whole car will flip. We were so blessed, Aubri pulled over safely and that no cars were around us when it happened. After he put the spare tire on he told us it was flat. So Aubri had to drive in Reverse to the on ramp so we could get off. LOL!! It was so funny, well not her driving. ;) So the Highway patrol guy escorted us to Wally's Auto and filled up our tire with air. Then we headed back to Mesquite to go get a new tire. So with this happening, we sadly missed the Blessing but we were able to make it for part of the Luncheon. The Luncheon was great, with our long trip driving we were all extremely excited to get out of the car. The rest of our trip was fun just visiting and letting the cousins play. Clarke LOVES "Cwaire." He still asks about her all the time. We went to Ikea, Target, To the movies to see Ice Age, to my favorite Cafe Rio, Thanksgiving Point, and just hung out and visited it was great! Thanks giving Point was awesome! The kids loved it! There were a bunch of Farm animals that they could pet and feed and at the end they all went on a pony/horse ride. Our ride home was a lot better. We stopped to let the kids have a little break from the car and all got ice cream. It was hot, messy but fun. Then that night Uncle Danul/Deeno put on the best Fire work show ever. :) It was a lot of fun. Thanks Aubri for the fun Trip! We miss all the cousins already.

These pics are too cute! I love the one of you with your kids! You look so pretty! Clarke cracks me up with the pigs!! I love the age when they starts saying funny stuff like that! :)
I'm so glad you guys made it up here! Tell Clarke he can come visit us whenever he wants. Claire had so much fun with her cousins!
Scary, Stephanie. We had a tire incident on our trip, too . . . my sister's car, though, not mine . . . So glad it was minor and you guys are all fine.

What a great time!! It was so much fun! You are good sisters :) Tell the kids Gweema loves and misses them!
Looks like lots of fun! We took Dylan to Thanksgiving Point a few weeks ago. He was obsessed with the goats! It is such a fun place. Glad you are all safe and sound!
I saw the title of your post and started laughing out loud! I seriously hope we can do that again someday. We made so many fun memories!
God Bless Wally and his Auto Shop.
