The Motherland Trip!

Ok so we (Big Mama T (my mom), Me, Kaleia, and Shayla) took the LONG drive to Utah last week. We left at 3 AM and Lei did not go back to sleep again until we got there. Although it was not horrible...Thank the man who invented tv/dvds for the car and "a one and a two" goes out to Jim Hensen for creating Sesame Street! If you don't know my sister Stephanie is getting marred Thanksgiving and we went as a pre-wedding planning party. (I posted a pic of a dress she is not going to wear for obvious reasons. :) I think we accomplished all we could and I would make the trek again, although I am campaigning for us to fly out there in November. I haven't been back to Utah since 2003 and not much has changed. Can't say I miss living there although I do miss most of my roomates, and I do miss how cheap the cost of living is out there! It was odd though to go into Build A Bear and see tiny Book of Mormons for the dolls. LOL. As seen in the pic above Lei fell in love with Big Bird and carried that bird all thru the store and was very upset when she had to leave it behind when we left. Shay was building a monkey that is why we were there. Now we are back in Sac. and it is HOT HOT HOT.
