On the Road...again

For Memorial weekend we visited Clu's family in Arizona. What a great quick getaway. It was a long drive, but beautiful scenery makes it go by a little faster. We went to the flea market (we were a little early at 11am! Most people apparently aren't up and going by then), spent time with Clu's mother and even stopped by to see his grandparents. Max was a total trooper in the car. The ride home took 11 hours compared to the normal travel time of only 8 (we won't be traveling through price on that day again)! Max didn't get upset until we hit Provo and on our way back from G&G McDonald's and stuck in traffic (at a stand still for two hours) he didn't cry once even although he was hungry! The nice truck driver next to us offered us his "silk" milk for Max, but he was okay for the time being - it is so great to know that we still have good people out there.

He threw the phone on the floor to try and reach the light switch to play with it. His efforts were in vain. He still couldn't reach the switch.
