Notes from a nurse: Weekend getaway to visit the siblings!

Well I decided earlier last week that I was going to take a short drive down to Utah to spend the weekend with Glendon and Kaytee before the big deployment. (p.s. I love being a nurse and having long weekends that allow for little trips) I do not love being in the car for long periods of time, but I figured I could handle it with some good music and setting the cruise control at about 85 :) I made it there on thursday evening and glendo and I enjoyed a nice dinner from subway together. Then it was Kaytee and my job to keep him awake because he was working midnight to noon, therefore we went on a late night "pop-run" to albertsons. The next morning Kaytee and I were quite lazy, but the afternoon held great plans. Kaytee chopped off her hair and highlighted it while I sat and watched. Then we headed out to costco for some excitement and met up with some utah friends for dinner at chilis. We ended the night by watching glendon's favorite tv show, Dukes of Hazzard! Saturday we left for Salt Lake to shop most of the day. Glendon does a fantastic job at keeping up with Kaytee and I :) Saturday night they had a friend that was singing at a local coffee shop so we headed out to support her and hang out with their friends. Of course Sunday we went to church in beautiful Huntsville (I always love the drive to church through the mountains and past the frozen lake). Then Kaytee and I took a short nap and glendon thought it would be funny to pour water into my mouth. We were not successful :( I asked Glendon if we could go running, and about a block into the run I was regretting my request. The altitude change and speed were kicking my butt, but I survived and even sprinted with him down their street. We ended my visit by me critiquing glendon's ability to hang valences in the kitchen. What a fun relaxing weekend with my favorite brother and sister-in-law. See you next year Glendon!!!!

Below are some pictures to document the weekend.
