Weekend in Blanding

This weekend we went to Blanding to visit my family. The trip there was a bit long. We got in a little bit of construction on our way out of Phoenix and about 30 miles south of Flagstaff our car started getting really shaky & bumpy. We tried to tell ourselves it was just the road, but as we entered Flagstaff it got even worse, so we knew it was our car. We pulled over into a parking lot, looked for a long time and could not figure out what was wrong. Finally we saw that we had a huge bubble on our tire. Luckily we had a full size spare.... and Colin. He was able to fix it very fast, I went to the bathroom and when I got out he was putting all the tools away...what a
man! :) So we made it to Blanding in just under eight hours.

Saturday we went up on the mountain with my family and Sandi's family. It was very nice to get out of the heat and up into the mountains. We had a picnic and rode four wheelers. The reason I only have pictures of everyone sitting on their four wheelers is because the campground is as far as I made it. Sandi and I were not allowed to ride due to our "condition. "Kind of a bummer, but my mom was nice enough to stay with us so we had fun just relaxing and talking. Colin had a lot of fun on the four wheelers and said it was worth the 14 hour drive to be able to ride.

It was Brooklyns birthday yesterday. She turned 4. We missed out on the cake and opening of presents, but I did see the cake and yes Sandi it was very cute. It was a Barbie cake, I bet Brooklyn loved it.

Well we hope everyone had a great weekend!
