So we just got back from our weekend getaway to St. George and Las Vegas. It started out pretty ruff, we had our car breakdown on the way and on Saturday it spent 6 hours at the mechanic getting the alternator, battery and starter replaced, not a lot of fun!! Saturday was my cousin Brady's wedding the ceremony was so neat, I love the St. George temple it's very pretty. It was an all white wedding. We missed the lunch due to the car, and the reception was beautiful. We got to see my Grandma Soberiay in St. George that was great we haven't seen her since Thanksgiving. On Sunday we drove to Las Vegas, to see as many people as we could fit into a day. We saw my Grandpa Bill, and Grandma Mary and went to lunch with them at Sweet Tomatoes, has anyone else eaten there it was really good!! Then we went to my uncle Danny's house, which is HUGE and beautiful. Then we headed over to the mall (yes I know that it was a Sunday, but what happens in Vegas...!!). We went to the Disney store--which Mykell loved, and got her a Tinkerbell costume for Halloween, and some clothing stores. Mary came with us and that was fun, she got Mykell a cute Tinkerbell doll!! Next we went to see Grandma Sobieray and her husband Don's house. Mykell was a little crazy at their house, sorry Grandma!! She was so excited to see her "Grandma Debbie Sobieray" again. Then we went with them, my uncle Ladd his wife Adriane and my cousin Whitney to the Cheesecake Factory--yummm!! Then we drove up the strip and showed Mykell the lights (hopefully that's all she saw, I don't think it's kid approved we won't be doing that again!!!). Then is was back to St. George. Today we took our time, and made the must needed stop at Cabela's--soo fun??? Finally we made it home with a car that works but empty wallets!!! It was soo fun to see our family, I miss them so much. The kids really were troopers!! Thanks everyone that helped us out, we love you all!! (My picture got out of order the first four are supposed to be the last, I don't have time to fix them!!)

I love taking road trips to see family. Our drive is 10 hrs to UT, a little longer than I like, but it's worth it. I even braved it alone with my 2 kids... once.

Sorry about the car trouble.

It looks like you guys had so much fun! I'm so glad you were able to get away and enjoy some time together. That's so great that you were able to see so many members of the extended family. I'm glad Porter and Mykell were good! And I don't think its weird that you took pictures at Cabelas. Its kind of cool!
