Road Trip Part One

I'll be the first to admit that I belong to a family of extremists. It's just the way we are. So when we decide to take a summer road trip--we're not going to do it half way. Gas prices at an all time high? Thousands of miles to cover? Puh-lease, these are mere speed bumps on our hard-core adventure. So off we went from Nashville to Salt Lake to Manchester. The first leg was to celebrate the union of Lauren marrying up to fabulous Carolyn and it only took a mere 27 hours of non-stop driving excitement. All the Gilberts got to be together and it was fabulous. We also got to stay with Kent and Kate and baby Afton.


The cousins that could pass for twins if you kind of squint and aren't too close.


One of my favorite views from my seat in the car.


Brad and Clay hopped in to ride with us whenever they could and they added an extra fun element to our home on wheels.


Harrison loved the hike we went on.


Riding the caboose with Dad at the This is the Place Park. That's sweet Lizzie with Uncle Abe up ahead.

I love it. I hope you were in Utah when I wasn't there, or I'll be really angry. But I hope you had fun! I know I enjoyed my road trips this summer.

I'm loving getting to see some of the things that ya'll did on the leg of the trip that didn't include us. I wish I had a picture of all of us before and after our drive....good times.
