This summer my mom and I went up to Utah for a baptism and to see my sister Julie. We started off on the road on Thursday morning!!! The next day we finally got there...no just kidding, but it felt about that long. What should have been a 10 hour drive turned into a 14 hour drive when my moms new cars navigation system got us lost in Flagstaff. By the way, not the easiest thing to do getting lost there. Her navigation lady (AKA Vikki) had other plans for us and kept trying to take us back to Phoenix, and believe me, after 3 hours in Flagstaff, that was'nt sounding so bad. Finally we found our way out of there and we were back on the road!!! After a long, long drive and one more stop for ear plugs (b/c my very misbehaved, screaming kids were making grammy go deaf) we made it to Julies house. We did so many fun things. We went to Gardner Village, Provo canyon to fly kites, horse back riding, and more!!! I LOVE UTAH! One week later we were back on the road going home. The ride home was even worse! 1 hour longer, 3 screaming kids and 1 criminal speeding ticket....I'll leave it at that!!!

My little princess Gracie, she is so cute.

Look at Gracie in the wagon picture, that backpack was hers for that day. Conner decided that it was his and wore it for the rest of the trip. Gracie is such a good sister to share her things!!!
