On The Road

Whew.  We've been "on the road" for a few days now it seems.  We left home on Wednesday morning, bright and early, after a crazy two days of dentist appointments, doctor check-ups, laundry and cleaning.  We drove and drove and drove until we got to Utah.  It is a really long way sometimes.  And this time was one of those times because we have a baby in the car again.  Do you know how long it has been since I had a baby in the car?  Baby C did fine enough but he's still a baby and they can be hard.  Plus, I think he's decided he really doesn't like to sleep in his seat.  Uh-oh, that's bad news for everyone!
So we got to our friend's house on Wednesday night.  They live in Saratoga Springs, which is just west of Utah Lake.  They were generous enough to give us their basement to sleep in.  It was really good to visit with the Weekes.  They used to live in our stake but moved last summer.
Thursday, we had planned on visiting Temple Square and the Museum of Church History.  However, we took the morning slow - very slow.  We had a get together planned with some of my friends from high school Thursday evening which is why we were sticking around Northern Utah.  Because of our slow start we ended up just doing some shopping in Lehi/American Fork area.  We went to dinner at Café Rio - aaaahhhh - so good. Then headed to the get together.  Sadly the clubhouse pool was out of order so the kids didn't swim but Roy was awesome to entertain the kids while I visited with friends. 
We left the party to head to Delta where we planned on spending Thursday night.  We had another slow and relaxing morning before we hopped in the van and headed to St. George.  Tonight we are in St. George where we will be for the next few days.  We had a family dinner with nearly all the Pyatt's tonight.  We are here to celebrate my in-law's 50th wedding anniversary which was in March.  All 10 of their children will be here for the celebration tomorrow.  It is so good to see everyone.  We haven't seen some of them for years!  The kids are meeting their cousins and playing/swimming their little hearts out.  Roy and I are visiting and laughing with all the brothers, sisters and in-laws.  I'm so excited for this weekend!  It's going to be great!
