Road Trip

Tuesday the Mia Maids and Laurels met at the Mintey’s for “adulting”. Each month we are learning a different skill to prepare the girls for life. This month was car maintenance. Pat did a great job teaching us. He was very patient. When we were done Karen had hot chocolate and cookies waiting for us. We had a fun night. 

I taught school that day. Only day this week. Monday was presidents day, Tuesday I worked. Wednesday is flex day for Ethan so I almost never work Wednesday’s. Today we are driving to Utah. I did get to teach seminary though so I was still busy. I also get to teach next week. 

Yesterday Ethan texted me “do you remember that place we used to go with the plastic food?”

Then we reminisced fondly about the Ft Worth museum of science and history. We used to go every week and play while Hannah was at museum school. It was awesome, we both loved it. Living in Texas was a very sweet chapter in our lives. We had 3 babies born there, 2 girls graduate from high school, made lots of friends, and had lots of great experiences. We loved Fort Worth and all the family friendly things to do there. 

Now we are headed up to Utah. Hannah’s going to the temple on Saturday. Jenna is flying in and we are having a baby shower. Anna came so we will get to see her. It’s going to be great!

We sure have a lot of stuff for 2 people and one small dog. Ethan has an AP Calc test on Saturday so he couldn’t come, he’s staying at the Harvey’s. Grace didn’t want to drive for a quick weekend so since Ethan was staying we let her stay also. She’s at Rylin’s and Aubrey’s.

In our defense we have winter stuff, Temple bags, fishing stuff, shower games and gift, birthday gift for Marshall, dog stuff and extra pillows and a blanket.
