For those of you back home who are wondering, we are alive! I haven’t posted anything in a while because we’ve been on vacation in Utah and Idaho for the past week. Time for a vacation update.
We left California at the girls’ bedtime, 7:30 p.m. and lots of sugar, two red bulls, and one audiobook later, we arrived in Utah at 6 a.m. local time, driving straight through. Jake and I split the drive, and although driving through the night was pretty brutal toward the end, it was well worth it since the girls stayed asleep the entire time.
As a bonus, when we transferred the twins from the car to my parents’ house, they stayed asleep and let us sleep in for another couple hours. Thanks, girls!
As soon as the twins woke up, they bolted out of bed and ran around the house, exploring all the new toys. The last time they were here, they were only 9 months old and weren’t walking yet!
The first day we were in Utah, we hung out with our family friends, the Millers from El Paso, who were enjoying their last day of vacation. For as long as I can remember, it’s been a yearly tradition for them to come every summer to stay at my parents’ house. We were happy to catch them before they left so they could meet Samantha and Amelia.
Between the terry cloth swim cover ups and the curly pig tails I cannot take the cuteness overload!
