I decided to take the kids and go for a trip up north so see my Grandma before she flew back to California. She has been in SLC since the beginning of December so I didn't get to see her when I went home from Christmas.
There were snowstorms forecasted on and off all week and I kept watching the news to figure out what day would be a good day to travel but ended up driving in a snowstorm. It was pretty awful driving the whole way up to Provo in the snow.
When I got to Orem I went to my cousin Michelle's house and the kids and I visited for about 45 mins. After that we picked up Trisha and had dinner at one of the cheap food places Sam and I use to go to all the time, El Azteca. We then got to spend the night at Jessica and Richards house which was really fun because I hadn't gotten to see their condo before. Porter loved their cats and told me he wanted two cats just like Jessica.
The next morning we left before 8am, and before Jessica and Richard woke up, picked up Trisha and headed to Riverton to see my Grandma. We visited and played games all day. My cousin Laura even came over and we got to see Adam, Annalee, and Addison. My Aunt Ruthie took very good care of us and feed us lots of good food and treats.
The next morning I got to see my Aunt Linda and Uncle VarDee before Trisha and I went back to Provo. We got Ruby's picture taken at JC Penneys (which like always was pretty awful). We ate kids meals at the BYU Creamery, very yummy and I love their ice cream. I took Trisha back to her apartment and Porter got to wrestle with her roommate, Kiera. Unfortunately I wanted to get home before it got dark so I had to leave. The ride home was much better then the ride up there. We only had to stop twice. I am very glad we got to go visit but I will be awhile before I do it again.

what a good grandchild you are. I don't ever see my grandparents unless I already happen to be near them
apparently both of your children take after their father when it comes to squinting in pictures!
I love the squinty smiles. You are brave to make that drive. Jane loves her carseat but that sounds a little long and tedious to me!
I just found your comment on my blog. Glad to have yours now! This blogging world is awesome. Your kids are darling...isn't motherhood fun??? Love the look of your blog & glad you are doing well!
