Our Summer road trip to Utah

On June 23rd at 6 am My Mom the kids and I headed to Springville Utah to vist my brother and his family. When we started the trip we had optimistic views of a pleasant uneventful car ride. Well the trip wasn't great due to both girls had the flu start a few hours into the trip, road construction etc that made an 11 hour trip turn into 14 hours. All in all the kids themselves did travel well. We played games watched movies and other than the occasional outbursts from Natalie the kids did great.


On to our trip and the events that occured during the next week. Here are the kids and their cousins playing in the jacuzzi bathtub at the house.
