Brooklyn ready to do a little Outlet shopping in St. George before we make the final stretch to California. The first 10 hours of our trip was pretty good, we hit traffic in SLC there was a fatal crash that blocked the FWY for a while luckily I called Cherlyn and she told me how to get around the traffic. That saved us a few hours delay. Then we were almost to our exit in St. George and we saw a family flagging anyone that would stop off the side of the road so we stopped. I was a little worried at first since they approached my side of the truck, but they had lost a wheel and had no phone to call for help. We helped as much as we could and where on our way again, we made it to the hotel around 9pm.
Our seasoned traveler, she does great when we travel. We are able to make it about 10 hours before all of us go crazy and need to stop. Once we made it to California the traffic was pretty nasty and it was raining so it took longer, thankfully we had borrowed our neighbors DVD player and that was a great distraction for her. We didn't have to use it much on the trip which is good.
Brooklyn was enjoying her time with Uncle Mark at Uncle Doug's funeral. She thought it was so funny to catch the rain in her hand and then flick it at her uncle.
Uncle Doug with his son David, and nephews Danny and Mark at Danny's college graduation party. He was always a character making faces, telling stories never a dull moment with him around. He is missed it is hard to belive he is gone, but we all have plenty of stories to share.
Nana so happy to be cuddling with her Sunshine girl.
We went to Uncle Mark and Auntie Cara's house for dinner on night. As you can see B and Skylar hit it off. Skylar was a good sport letting B lay on her. Brooklyn was all about sharing her blanket and Buttercup dog.
On Thursday night Dec 23rd, mom had the Adait family over for dinner. It was good to be able to talk to them a little bit more without the funeral craziness. Brooklyn loves her silly bands and her daddy.
Nice smile Brooklyn, I guess that's what you get when you ask a 2 yr old to say cheese. The newset Auntie to be, Cara. Mark proposed the week before. We are excited to have her in the family, I am excited to have another sister-in-law, she is a great match for Mark. We are so excited to see him happy.
Cousin Madisen and B hanging out sucking there thumbs, which they thought was so funny. Madisen was so sweet to Brooklyn reading to her and playing with her. Thanks Madisen.
Grandma Adair and Danny, she was so happy that we came down. It was great to see her light up with Brooklyn.
Brooklyn got her first Mr Potato head, she was quite excited to play with it. She had no problem hamming it up for the camera and the family. Great Grandma Adair got her a Dora book that has a music player attached to it, she loves it and had even more dun showing off dancing to it. When I can get the video uploaded I will post it.
