Jeff arrived late Friday Aug 3, we left Saturday morning (side note: Kim Bateman's dad Jim passed away this week from cancer - very sad and fast. His funeral was the day we were leaving town - Aug 4th)
I don't have any pictures of Jeff's arrival because we were too busy enjoying his company after 3 weeks - kids were a smidge excited. They spent the next morning playing in the grass and having a great time with their dad. We drove to Provo and stayed with my aunt and uncle. We got in at 1 am - traffic in Utah is always a nightmare it seems...we stayed for breakfast, they left for church, we locked up the house and visited with Steven for a little bit. Then back on the road. I finally pulled the camera out around Flagstaff - beautiful clouds and sun streaming through.
barely visible but there's a double rainbow
stickers kept some of us entertained
movies on our 'hanging-in-there-please-last-a-couple-more-hours-we're-down-to-one-screen' dvd player.
candy from the gas station in Page kept others hidden from view.
we love the car! sort of.
Finally make it home and it's 102?? Ugh. Oh and it's 9 pm.
Jeff takes the camera and heads inside because he sent me this picture a couple weeks ago: and a note - Tell Lucas I cleaned his room - Jeff
(I showed Lucas the following picture - he was devastated! Called Jeff and practically in tears. He soothed some fears but didn't explain why! he was 'cleaning'.
Here's why:
Jeff had his phone on the bed recording everything - Lucas was/is so excited for BUNKBEDS!! He ran back in the hall jumping up and down yelling to his sisters - I got bunkbeds!!
