Utah

We went down to Utah for a visit. I worked til 11PM that night so Benny drove down with me that night. We had a great time on the way up there. We were laughing and singing our little hearts out haha. When we pulled into Dillon, MT Benny prepaid for a pump at the gas station but when he came out to the car he realized he had given her the wrong pump number. As I was driving to the correct pump I was so far away from the actual pump because I didn't turn sharp enough. Benny did a cute run out with the gas trigger thing acting as if it would reach. We borrowed Em and Nathan's GPS and Benny was so funny with it. It would let us know that we were "off course" Benny pretended to flip it off because it was frustrating him. When I pulled into Pocatello the GPS was telling me, "You are off course. At next opportunity flip a U-turn." Haha. We stayed up singing to the only cd that was in the car. I can guarantee we are both sick of some of the songs like Jordin Sparks Battlefield, Flo-rida Jump, BEP I gotta feeling, BEP Boom Boom pow, etc. We arrived at Aunt's Joan's house around 1030 that morning. We slept til about noon or one and then headed over to Mike and Geri's. We stopped at Sonic to get some lunch. Mike called us to tell us that we would be driving past where they filmed footloose. He said, "So if your foot starts tapping you will know why." Dad complaining about his drink at sonic, "He gave me a coke with two ice cubes!" Mom: That is because you said yes when he asked you if you wanted easy on the ice. Dad responded: No I was answering yes because he asked me if I was EASY ON THE EYES. What a dork! We went up to Bridal falls with Mike's family, which was beautiful. We left them and went to Payson, UT to Chris and Kristi's house. Chris and Kristi fed us pizza and pop. It was the first time I had seen their house. Very cute! I loved Payson, it was so quiet and just relaxing while we were outside. We went inside and little Kaiden had me smell every flavor of the scentsy collection—haha I love that kid! We had a great time and came back with a few cousins. We also ran into Sara and Richard in Duboix. I am so glad to have run into them as well. I just love my family! I wasn't going to go up at first but being we needed another vehicle to bring back some of the family I ended up going and I am sooooo glad! I didn't realize how much I missed our Utah trips that we used to take each summer. I love my family and I loved getting to see all of them. What a blessing!

Aunt Joan has always had the most beautiful roses! Thank you to Uncle Dick and Aunt Joan for letting us stay at their house and for their hospitality ever since I can remember we have always been comfy at their house and they have made it so we always feel at home!
Benny got his bday shoes on this trip. I suprised him by wearing his shoes out of the car. His face was priceless. These are his golden shoes. The picture above is me showing where my toes are. Benny has a size 11 foot!
How cute is this. I tried getting pics of Benny helping Everett down but the two of them were being stinkers.

Poor Yoda. He and Dad were buds. He just was good about posing with dad for the pictures.
