Roadtrip 2010

I know it is customary to post pictures when reporting on the events of a family vacation, but as we were pulling out of the garage at 4 a.m. on Thursday morning, I realized my phone was dead, and I did not really think about it again.

But we had a great trip. Tim and I really enjoy roadtripping together. I think it comes down to this ... he is stuck with me in the car, and I love it. He can't get away or avoid conversation. I even get him into an audio book with me sometimes. This trip we are both loving The Hunger Games. Crazy book. (Don't give away the ending, we are only half done.)

Anyway, I have loved this time with my family: in the car, at Grandmas, out and about, in the pool and all around. It has been hot and wonderful.

Tim and I got to go to an amazing wedding on Saturday. His best man got married. I was really touched by the power of this wedding because his new wife has a 4-year-old son. It was a really power feeling to watch a family being formed. That was a first for me, and I loved it. We did not get to see the sealing in the temple because we suck and let out recommends expire!! I was heart broken when I realized they were sealed with the little boy after the wedding. I would have loved to see that, but the spirit of the event was so strong that it transcended the temple doors for sure. The dinner was lovely, and Tim got to wear a manly lime green tie -- matchy, matchy with 10 other guys.

I was so sleepy on this trip. I think I might was relaxed. I kept passing out for naps and nighttime. Loved it.

We are heading out for Utah at 4 a.m. tomorrow. I've got to be at work by 3 p.m. It will be a long day, but it was all well worth it.
