Hello again! This has become so fun now that I know how to add pictures and can make these things cute! I guess I've covered the couple of weeks before we left for Utah so I'll start with our 4am wake up to get ready to go. We got everything packed in the little car and started to leave when we realized we had to fit one more person in the car (kim was going to drop us off THANKS KIM!) so we had to pull back into the house and leave the stroller :( you really need a stroller when you have a baby in a heavy car seat. Anyway it was necessary so left it home and were on our way. Well we got to the airport and flew (Elliott's 3rd flight) to Cincinnati it wasn't bad, he slept through most of it, then we got right on our flight to the great Salt Lake City! That was a bit more interesting of course I'm wearing black and of course Elliott spit up on me every time Mark handed him to me, so I had four huge white smelly spots on me. . . I guess we at least learned to hand the burp rag first. We spent four hours passing him back and forth, and walking him back to mom. . . he did so good! Mark and Mom spent the time on the flight playing and winning the trivia game that the whole plane got to play, I was playing too, just not winning! This
could be a very long blog if I keep writing things like that. . . I'll start consolidating from here on! We got to SLC and dad was there to pick us up he took us straight to the hospital to see Reid who had just gotten out of surgery. I have a sweet brother he came out to Tennessee with a collar bone broken in three pieces putting off surgery to come to Elliott's blessing. :) Here's a picture of it before the six screws and plate were put in YIKES! Well we spent the day with a very loopy Reid, and Auntie Hilarye at their house. Auntie Gubby finally got to meet Elliott at the hospital, and she also
spent the day with us, she brought the infamous Alex up for dinner so we could meet him (and the jury is still out on him) ;) just kidding we got along just fine!! Great Grandpa Bill was also able to make dinner that night! The next day we drove to Provo took Chels out to lunch, made a quick stop by the BYU bookstore to see Aunt Jan, and were off again to Great Grandma Sally's house to see her and Aun
t Cindi and the kids! After that we started for Hurricane, and four hours later we were home. We mowed lawn and played with Grandma Dee for the next few days, taking Elliott to his first and last movie for a while(he didn't like it too much. Mark and I flew up to SLC on Saturday to go to the BYU football game, then back down Saturday night to be back for church, then after church we left for L.A. for the UT game, and then drove back to Utah that night so we could go four wheeling with dad on Tuesday. I'll put some fun pictures up of the little trips inside the big trip later :) Wednesday we started heading back about 5 am and to home that evening. . . Elliott had three flights in that one day and he did great he's got travel in his genes! Ok, it's long enough you have our trip in a nut shell. . . more pictures to come soon!
