For Thanksgiving this year we decided a couple of weeks before to surprise our families in Utah and fly up to visit them. We took a later flight from Phoenix where the temperature was around 75 degrees and landed in Utah where the temperature was 10 degrees and freezing. Mike had rented a car from enterprise and had to wait in the freezing cold without his jacket thanks to Kristie. He finally got his car and it was only car covered in snow. Luckily the employees cleaned it off for him. We ended up with Chrystler M300 nice car, fairly large in size until we tried to put our luggage, car seats and stroller in there. It did not fit. So here we are freezing cold kids are tired and freezing, and we cannot fit all the luggage in our car. Our only option as bigger cars were all rented was to put the stroller on kristie's lap. So off we went with all our gear and stroller on kristie. She could not even see out of the car. It was so funny.
We got unloaded a the downtown Marriot and got all unpacked and off to bed. We shared two double beds with the kids, well actually we each had an edge of the bed while the kids took the whole bed. Sometime during the night Cohen had worked his way over the other side of the bed and bam..he fell off the bed. Was crying, kristie had hadley on top of her and could not move, mike was in the bathroom so kristie kept telling cohen to hold on daddy would be there in a minute. It was a great night to say the least. We both slept maybe 2 hours if we were lucky.
We got up the next day and had a great breakfast at the Marriott the food was delicious. We had the restaurant to ourselves as it was Thanksgiving Morning.
We headed up to Kamas for dinner and Kristie's mom and family were so happy to see us. Very surprised to say the least. Dinner was great, the food was so gooooooooood. As you can see from these pictures we had a great time.
Long story short Cohen got real sick ended up in instacare, we took hadley along as well to get checked out. Cohen had pretty high fever and took him another week to finally recover. Poor little man. Hadley came out pretty good never got too sick. Not sure if the weather had anything to do with it but we are sure it did not help. Mom and Dad love to travel so they might as well get used to it early. Fun times for sure. Getting all geared up for our next trip to Utah in a month for Christmas........DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN :)
