We took our longest trip in the van ever this weekend. We spent 15 hours driving all night to go to Utah for 2 days for Cassey and Sage's wedding and then spent another 15 hours driving home. We had fun though and was totally worth the trip. The boys slept all night which gave James and I a chance to talk and reminiscence and be a little goofy. (Lack of sleep makes everything either really funny or really annoying) We got to our hotel cleaned up and rested before heading out to Temple Square. Friday would be our only chance to do the touristy stuff, and it gave the boys some running around time. I think we set a new record for a self guided tour. But they enjoyed it. I wasn't shy about asking people to take pictures for us. So I can't complain if they didn't turn out the way I wanted them too.

A fast paced tour through Temple Square means. 1-Pictures of family taken with Conference Center on the go. 2- Mom gets to walk slower and take in the beauty of the flowers and the Salt Lake City Temple. 3-Get in the Air Conditioner as fast as you can. |
| Quick walk to Visitor Center |

| of course My kids run up the ramp to the Statue of Christ. |
| I wanted something good to come of this quick tour, so I purposely sat here and waited for the presentation to start.  |

The weather was beautiful, but hot, so we had a race to the van to get the A/C going. James and Logan won, while I stayed behind with Pokey. Quote from the whole trip: At 10 O'clock at night " It's sad when 85 degrees feels good." |
