Thanksgiving Break

Over Thanksgiving break Royce, Grace, and I drove to Idaho for Royce's sister Colby's wedding. It was quite the adventure! We left the 20th and drove to Vegas to stay the night! On the way Grace had to go potty and there were no rest stops so Grace experienced her first pee on the side of the road haha she was scared! Anyways we stayed at Circus Circus which was a little junky but kinda fun! That was our first hotel of the week! The next day we traveled to Salt Lake City and stayed a couple nights. Tuesday we drove with Royce's fam trying to make it to Jackson, WY but the roads got bad so we stayed the night in Idaho Falls. Wednesday we made it to Jackson and we stayed in a hotel there where we had our lovely thanksgiving meal! It was quite good!! Royce's big 30th birthday was Friday and we went to Rexburg to stay the night for Colby's wedding the next day! We went out for his birthday and he watched football all day so he loved it especially since Boise State lost! Anyways so Saturday was the wedding and it was awesome! Colby and Jim looked so good and so happy! After the reception that night, which was amazing by the way, we made our way back to Salt Lake, got home at 2 am, then got up in the morning to leave and our car wouldn't start! So after a few hours of trying to start it we just took Royce's dad's car and drove back to California. It took us 13 hours because of bad roads and we didn't get home until 1 am. Needless to say we were glad to be home! Luckily Royce's dad is so awesome and instead of Royce having to drive back to Utah to get our car, he is going to drive it down for us...thanks Russell!! It was a good week!
