Erin was kind enough to make the drive out to Utah with me and the munchkins. We were going to be at my parents house for an entire week before Nick flew out, leaving us lots of time to swim and play. Unfortunately the morning that we left on our major road trip Elyssa didn't feel well. I loaded everyone in the car anyway, and with the help of ibprofen things were semi-managable. Then by mid-morning Alec was feeling awful as well and they were both holding onto extremely high fevers. It made for one very long, hard day in the car. As we were coming to the end of crossing Nebraska Alec cried "I don't want to see any more corn fields anymore!" Oh honey, I understand!! Nebraska is not my favorite drive.
We arrived in Fort Collins to stay for the night with my dear friend, Nicole. She was a kind, gracious, and generous host despite my sick munchkins. I was sad that we didn't get to go swimming in her pool, but I was sooo glad that I actually got to see Nicole and spend at least a little bit of time with her this summer. She has to be one of my all time favorite people ever.
After a fitful night, with Elyssa's temp spiking at 104 degrees, we got up, ate yummy breakfast with Nicole, snapped a few pictures for proof, and headed on our way to Utah.
Thank you, Nicole, for letting me and my munchkins crash your place! We love you to bits!
