On the Road Again- Part II

We made another drive this weekend- this time up to Salt Lake. It was supposed to be a quick trip, however there were a few surprises that made it quite a bit longer.
Surprise #1- We run slower than we used too. We ran the Dash for Donation somewhere between 27-28 minutes (I'm a lot better at remembering exact times when I was the winner... but Mike beat me by about 30 seconds this time). It was a pretty fun race; there were about 700 other people to manuaver around.

Surprise #2- It took over an hour to get pancakes from IHOP.

Surprise#3- Mike lost his cell phone. Considering he needed it Monday for work, we drove from IHOP in Lehi back to Salt Lake then re-continued our journey back south. Turns out it was by my feet the whole time, whoops!

Surprise #4- We made a stop at the Chevron in Provo. No, we didn't run out of gas: Adelyn threw up and needed a major wash down. Thank goodness it was mostly all over Uncle Garrick's blanket. Here is a picture of Adelyn after she was all cleaned up and happy.

Surprise #5- We made a stop at Cove Fort. No, not for any sight seeing: Michael threw up and needed a mega wash down. The missionaries there let us borrow a garden hose when they saw the damage.Here is a picture of Michael after he was all cleaned up and happy.Mike still made it home in time to help with the ward activity, which turned out to be a major success. And all is well that ends well. Adelyn and Michael both appear to be fine, although we are keeping them from church today just in case.

Boy, dad & I said that we were sure glad to not have surprises #4 &5 any more! The kids sure do look cute though after being washed off! And amazingly happy at that point! Congrats on the running again. And glad you found the phone!
