UTAH TRIP

Todd had to go out of town for 15 days and suggested it would be a good time for me to go see Shanell in Utah!  I left the kids with my mom (my dad's idea!) and headed out with Taylor on a road trip.  We had a BLAST!

DAY 0NE
Start driving with the plan of making it all the way to Utah.  Pull over in Clinton (an hour and a half from home) to take a nap because I just can't stay awake any more.  Decide we'll never make it to Utah in one day and head for Aunt Vernet's house in Colorado instead.  I always love staying at Vernet's!
DAY TWO: 
Drive to Utah. 
Go Grocery shopping with Shanell, make dinner, and go out for frozen yogurt.
DAY THREE:
Take a walk to the park, do a couple laps and then walk home.
Go shopping.
Go to a BBQ for one of Logan's friends who was leaving for Med School.


At the BBQ, the view was amazing!
DAY FOUR:
Do a 7 o'clock session at the Temple and then drop Logan off at work.
Go on a picnic at the park.
 Go explore Temple Square including a tour of the conferece center and the new family history library (It's HUGE and awesome!).

 To the the state capitol lawn to watch The Sandlot projected onto a screen.

   DAY FIVE:
Go garage saleing in the morning.  Only bring one quarter with us each time and see what we can get them to give us for a quarter.
