June in Utah

Addy and cousin JR

Addy and I had a great time in Utah! Brad was in the middle of midterms so it was perfect for us to go. We were able to spend some extra time with Rem before he left on his mission because he didn't get his visa and there was no room in Provo for him so that was a great surprise! Addy loved "Wemy!" The weather was perfect and there was no humidity! Awesome! Can you tell I don't really like the humidity? It really is NOT fun but we are getting through it.It was a lot of fun to see Addy and JR together. She loved him and especially helping put his binki in so I am very grateful I do not have another baby because I really don't think I'd be able to handle it! JR would smile when Addy was around, they are cute! I really didn't want to leave and after 2 wonderful weeks I was slapped in the face with a horror trip home. Read below for details.....

When it came time to leave it was really sad, I felt like I could have stayed at least another week! And there was a sign that maybe I should have! We got to the airport and ON the airplane when they told us Denver (that is where we had to stop b4 ST.louis) was having a bad storm and tornados in the area! Just my luck! So we got off the plane and 3 hours later got back on! This is not an easy task with a 22 month old who just runs everywhere! The flight was supposed to be a little over an hour but of course we had to circle before landing which made it about 2 hours! (Not fun when you have to go pee so bad while entertaining a toddler!)When we got to Denver we were supposed to leave within 45 min. to St.Louis and of course it turned into2 1/2 hours! It was horrible, I was so sick of the moving sidewalks that I was going to scream. Well, it doesn't end there.....our plane came but they said they had to give it to the San Antonio passengers who had been waiting longer so we waited for another plane got on it and there were electric issues!! Yes I was crying by this point. So we got off that plane and waited 30 min. for another plane and then finally left! We cruised home though...it usually is a little over 2 hours to st.louis and it only took us 1 1/2 hrs. so that was good! But, it was 2 am by this time and I had the biggest headache of my life. All in all it was about a 12 hour ordeal by the time we got home! It was a nightmare and I don't think I want to ever fly through Denver again! But I feel like I can conquer anything now because I was all by myself with Addy and I just didnt know how I was going to make it but I did -so I feel very proud!!

Up in Millcreek canyon and Addy loved s'mores:)

Just cooking more food! I have never eaten so bad, awesome!

Addy loved playing soccer and having an actual backyard to play in!

Thanks for the fun 2 weeks! I loved seeing friends and being introduced to "Top it!" Thanks Paige, I love it and will go everytime now! Rem has now entered the MTC, so exciting for him and I would just love to see him in Brazil because pretty sure he will be the only red head!
