Wyoming

Early October we took our first road trip as a family of five. Friday afternoon we took Claire out of school a little bit early and headed up to Salt Lake. While Scott headed off to work, we stayed and played with Scott's sister, Becca. Scott works up in Salt Lake now, and with his football game Saturday morning also up in Salt Lake, we thought it would be a convenient and fun start to the weekend to have a sleepover! The kids loved it and actually went to sleep quicker than they do at home. :)
The next day, after Scott's game, we headed up to Green River, Wyoming to visit my sister April and her family. Seth did pretty well on the drive. We had to stop and nurse him once about twenty minutes before we got there, but we found this nice rest stop that had a playground and sold ice cream cones, so it was a fun little break. When we got to April's house, we ate a quick dinner and headed to the park. My sister's husband was being deployed the next week and they wanted some family pictures before he left. We had a fun evening playing at the park, taking pictures, and spending time with family. We went to church with them the next day and headed home that evening. The ride home was a little trickier. My brother-in-law is lending us his vehicle while he's being deployed, so we drove back home in two cars. We're so grateful for his service to our country and for being such a wonderful father and husband to my sister. It was a fun weekend and we enjoyed spending time with family. :)
