Well I do not how to start.. I guess I need to start where I left of... Vacation!!
We had a great time in Utah .. the drive was very nice and longgggg.. but it was all worth it we almost made there in two days.... but oh no... when we got to Wyoming the temp drop to 32 and it was snowing a ot yes.....snowing in the middle of Summer it was very windy and so dark at 6:00 pm I though ok we can make it we are just three hrs way from Utah...after all we been in the car just for 15 hr. so what 3 three hr is gonna do to us in the car?
Well I was so wrong... the snow got thicker and heavier and more windy....I just though oh crap I gonna have to stop and spent the night in a hotel!!! so when I decided to do that all the cheap hotels (like 75.00 or 90.00 no more you know what I mean) the big flashing sing saying NO VACANCY just made my sick!!! I though great we are going to spent the night in the car and we might be dead by morning!!!
So we found a nice Holiday inn and they had the last room 150.00 for the night by that time I could care less how much the room will cost me....because if I would have stay in the car with Dylan for one more minute I would have kill him...I do not know if he knew how tired I was and how bad he was !!!!like for the last hr before we found the hotel....I guess he should be grateful to the city of Rock spring and Holiday inn ...because by the time we got to the room all I said was go to be all of you now and yes I don't care if you go to bed with out taken a shower and brushing you teeth!!!! I was seconds from killing him!!:)
We had a good night rest...I'm sure my kids pray that night for me to be a good mom and to be back to normal :) I think it did work ....we had a nice drive for the rest of the trip we got to the welcome center in Utah and again we had snow as big as cotton balls the kids love it they though is was cool to have snow in the middle of Summer and they even try to catch some in their mouth.
It was nice to see my sister and my nices and nephew, the weather was more than fabulous not humidity how nice was that?...I know is all about me...my hair was so nice and I never got sweaty love that!!!
Chelsea got to go to yw camp and EFY and she loved it!! I would no comment about that because
I know she is gonna blog about it.
For the rest of us... we just hang out at the house and went to different place each day...We got to see the Beham and the Emmertson a few time !!! we had a blast!!
I did not take many pictures...I know I'm a looser...I just do not like to have the camera with me all the time!!!.......but I have a few pictures no much , but some ok!!
So we stay in Utah for almost 4 weeks!! it was very sad to leave ..very sad....very very sad :(
But once we got on the road to come home ..we where ready to come home, we meet the Emmertson's girls in Wyoming and we follow each other back home we spent the first night in Oklahoma at the Mitchel's home it was very nice of them let all of us to stay at their home for the night we look like refugees, there was people sleeping all over the house .
I should had taken pictures but we where so tired and got to the house in the middle of the night it was a very good night sleep and a good rest!!!
The next day we left the Mitchells and took Dianne, Bradley, Bennet and baby Ju Ju with us, I had Bradley with me in my car and the rest was with Annie!!
We had some car trouble with Annie in Texas!!! it was nothing big ...but for whatever reason it looks like no body could be a good Samaritan now days!!!...but I would like to say there where some Mexican boys that try very hard to help and the owner of the shop was rude and did not let them help us.....they felt so bad and sad that they could not help us..it was something so simple that Annie need to have done on her car!!!
So we where like three hr behind schedule her car got fix and of to the road again... we had plan to spent the night out side of Shreveport LA, when we got there I went to the bass pro shop store and shop for a while.....then I decided to drive to Mobile that night I was ready to get home..Annie and Dianne stay at the hotel in LA, and I drove stray to Mobile I got home at 2:55 am ....and boy how happy i was to sleep in my own bed!!! I have the best mattress in the wold :).....if you do not have a tempur-pidic.....I suggest save money and get one is the best splurge we have!!!
( you all will not have any regret......you all be grateful I said something about it once you get one)
So for now we are just chillin and enjoying the last few days of Summer it was a great Summer for us and I hope you all a great one just like we did!!! is nice to be home and getting into the the old routine and seeing all our friend again!!!
We just can wait to go to the beach and them.....we can say ....... we are home :)
P.S.
William ....my sweet husband thank you for trusting me with our children and having all the confident that we could make the trip with out any trouble!! and for having all the confident on me . I love you more than you know

Yeah, I just got back and read your blog! It was fun reading about your Utah adventure(even though you already told me about it in person :) ).
Oh, and thanks too because of you, my girls think that there summer was the most boring ever! "Why does everyone want to go to Utah?" is there favorite saying. When we went to visit Mike's mom a few weeks ago, one of their friends there was out of town for the month. Guess where she was at? Yup...Utah.
Glad your back. I'll have to take your word on the mattress. Don't think I'll be saving up any money any time soon for that great mattress.
Now will you blog more often? I need to keep up on my gossip! I am so glad you all had fun in Utah.
