3 down 9 to go

We're officially on VACAY now! Brodee and I have been counting down the days since summer started. We left Monday afternoon and drove to Phoenix and then Tuesday we got up early and drove ALL day to Provo. The trip seemed extra long because we had to stop every other hour to keep Bentley sane...and because there was ALWAYS someone who had to go pee. HA!
Today we took Braunson to the MTC. It's kinda crazy now because they don't have a program for the families like they used to so we just dropped Braun off at the curb and had 30 seconds to say goodbye. I think it helped better emotionally.

We then took off to Nevada and drove about 4 hours to Elko to spend the night. I was in such AWE by how big the GREAT SALT LAKE once was, The sand from where there used to be water who knows how long ago went on for more than half of our drive. It weirded me out for some reason. Oh and we saw the Morton Salt Company, never knew they got their salt from the GREAT SALT LAKE.

Bentley did super good on the drive today though, she slept about an hour into it and then woke up and was a happy camper. Tomorrow we're off to Reno! Circus-Circus Baby!

Sounds like it will be fun! Interesting note, Sam's family took Jacob up to the MTC a few weeks ago and they told them that the curb drop off was because of a swine flu breakout. They weren't allowing any families inside. Pretty crazy!
