Pull up a comfy seat, grab a snack,
and while you're at it, could you grab me somth from Trader Joe's?
K, thx.
Pref. something not so good for me...
like their yummylicious bag of kettlecorn will do just fine.
Thx.
So I had this brilliant idea
(which really was brilliant until mother nature and beast of nature, aka: Luke, interfered. ) that we should take a leisurely road trip through the Lake Tahoe area on our way to SLC. You know, before all of this trans-Atlantic moving mumbojumbo happened.
Well, I don't know what I was smokin' when I packed us, but it wasn't the smart pipe!
It snowed going into Tahoe...IN Tahoe...and coming out of Tahoe.
So much for those sun hats and swimsuits I packed!
We finally made it to Utah after our looooong road trip.
Which, actually, wouldn't have been so butt-crampingly irritating, except
Luke decided...in the midst of driving our CIVIC through a BLIZZARD...
to push through PAST our 2nd night's reservation in some town I can't even remember, but that's not the point! It was a bed...with closets for the sleeping kids.
Wait. What?
But like I was sayin'.
Those closets would have been nice around
11P.M.
OR 12 A.M.
OR 1A.M.
OR even 2 A.M.
I usually put my kids down around 6P.M. ...
But I'm just sayin'
Utah was therapeutic.
No boarding, but none the less, therapeutic!
The Dinosaur Exhibit down at Thanksgiving Point was AWESOME!
And for only $10 all day
It'll be our new tradition!

All I have to say is:
"I would POOPMYPANTS if I found myself in the same ocean as this thing!!"
What? Where!
Still there?
German Shepard vs. the hose:
WHAT the!?!
Ultimate Frisbee:
Meet Me:
Meet my brother,
Gorilla Man:
Hello, not good idea!
Sweety, I know you're a seal and all...
but Gorilla Man?
I can't watch.
SuhwEEt!
Good thing you wore your
awesomely-fantastic-hardcore-ultimate-frisbee-desert-boots from Iraq!
And just in case you were wondering if we had mistakenly left this little nugget
somewhere along the way,
you were wrong.
She was Grandma's sidekick the entire time.
Thanks to J, Becky, Mom, and Chip, for putting us up!

Thanks for my Sunday morning comics!
Is Luke trying to be like my dad wearing boots with shorts?
I didn't know Tahoe was freezing...bummer!
Trying to figure out if we've been to that dinosaur museum....is it the one at Thanksgiving Point? Or the one in SLC by "this is the place?"
I love the pic of you playing ultimate frisbee. Yay! You're alive!
Owen just saw the pic of Porter at the museum and said "I love you Porter. Bye. You're a silly little kid. And your dad is silly. And Afton is silly, too. And bye."
"Porter you sprayed the dog in the mouth. Porter's funny. (laughing a lot)." - Owen
"I love you so much Porter." - Drew
Wait--all this time you were an Ultimate player, and I didn't know that? Dang!
Oh, I feel bad about Tahoe not being very fun.
The Porter vs Shepherd is hilarious!
Thanks for posting! Hope to see some Eurostylings soon!
The pictures of the dog are stinkin' hilarious!
Best of luck with the crazy move. I'm sure the long plane ride will all be but a faint memory after a few weeks, (ummm I mean months) in Europe ;).
Good Luck!
I just love all of your posts. You really crack me up.Anyway, DARN is all I gotta say about the Blizzard. I would have packed the beach hats too. You are one mean fighting machine frisbee momma.
I love the second picture of the dog's face. How do you even get lucky enough to get a shot like that? Hilarious!
Hey friend! Looks like a great time... how's the UNPACKING going in G'many??? Miss ya... Debi XOXOXO
