about Washington so far, I want to start off by describing our fun little road trip! So this first post is going to be about leaving Utah, and arriving to Idaho...
ABOVE: Just getting ready to leave the house. All packed up, and ready to go! This was a monday and ALL DAY Sunday we packed up everything and it was a pretty exhausting day. Bodie's mom was there to help us and send us on our way. Without her helping us pack and completely cram our cars, not to mention take loads of our stuff home that we couldn't fit, we definitly would have struggled. THANKS SO MUCH!!! Also a HUGE thanks to Bodie's aunt Yoli, and cousins Austin, and Oshai for helping pack/load. My car was jam packed as well as Bodies truck. We also pulled a trailer behind loaded with more stuff. It might not look like alot but believe me, it was. We both had our own drivers seats with some space in our center consol. That's about it. Both vehicles were stuffed, we couldnt see out our back windows at all. We left bright and early monday morning and the plan was to make it there, a 12 hr drive, but the end of the day...BELOW: This is pretty much what I looked at almost the whole way there...the back of Bodies truck/trailer. Very exciting. Bodie kept losing track of how fast he was going so the trailer would start rocking, it was scary! Luckily we had walkie talkies with us so I could keep him in check! Also, I really tried to take in the beautiful scenery most of the trip out of Utah provided...also very exciting. Can you tell how excited I was??? Nice...dead...fields.
...It seemed like half the trip was just getting out of Utah! We stopped in Salt Lake to visit my dad and stepmom on the way out. It was great to see them. Then we swung by the mall to grab Bodie some sunglasses...then we were on our way again.
BELOW: Ok now we're getting somewhere. These next few pictures are of Idaho. Seeing some rolling hills was nice, as well as some green. We also saw a GIGANTIC Budweiser plant, it was huge. Kinda cool... We also decided to take some time to see the water falls and the temple in Idaho Falls. It was so pretty. It was a very refreshing break.
The temple was beautiful...Bodie had never been there and he thought the falls were really something else. We had some fun taking pictures. By this time is was about 4-5pm, thats right we had been on the road for 9 hrs, but had stopped probably a total of 3...so we were a little behind. We really wanted to enjoy the trip, which we did. Any way, moving right along... MONTANA.(next post...)
