Prepping for a red eye flight home |
We flew into the Salt Lake City airport (cheaper! and to visit friends and family) and rented a car there. Needless to say, we spent a LOT of time in the car. I thought it would be generous to allow each child to pick out a "road trip treat" at Trader Joe's for everyone to enjoy and snack on together, during the long drives.
At our favorite burger joint in Provo |
He almost left his jelly beans behind so that he wouldn't have to share them. We could not seem to convince him that some jelly beans were better than none. (I still can't believe I was trying to convince my son to let me buy him some candy!!) Once he found out he would get to be the jelly bean manager, he decided it might be worth it after all. (me thinks the sleep deprivation may have been talking all along...)
Toad's first In-n-Out |
Hazel: The only things I want to do are eat cookies or GO. HOME!
Pretty soon we saw our first buffalo, and boy did that create some excitement! We pulled over and everyone got out of the car so we could point to the one, tiny buffalo off in the distance. Everyone got back into the car, more enthusiastic, and then we rounded the corner and there were seemingly hundreds of buffalo, EVERYWHERE, including crossing the road right in front of us.
Wedding welcome dinner w/ cousin P |
Cousin A meeting Toad |
Treats at "The Chocolate" |
We drove back through the Tetons, the next day, on our way to Sun Valley for a delightful 48 hours of outdoor wedding celebrations with kids everywhere and delicious food. Bonus: our airbnb condo rental had a community pool, hot tub, and sauna.
Back to Salt Lake City to visit grandma, cousins, and friends.
Krispy Kreme! |
Jay and I got a good laugh out of that.
Me: They have McDonald's all over the world!
Jay: They have it in Paris!
Me: They have them in Hungary and Japan!
Peach: [matter-of-factly, in a very know-it-all tone of voice] Of course they have it in Hungary, 'cause it's hungry!
These are all just cell phone shots. I still haven't uploaded any camera pics. Don't hold your breath. It's been awhile since I've uploaded any photos, yeah?
