I made it to Utah!

I'm finally in Utah after a somewhat crazy drive! Chelsey and I left Thursday around 8, and due to being delayed 3 hours from bad roads, we only made it to Twin Falls. But we got to Salt Lake around 11:30 on Friday so that was pretty good!

The only part that was bad during our drive was when we were driving through Oregon. Right before we for to Pendleton, We got stopped on a road and look up online that the road right in front of us would be closed for 3 hours! But we were only there for about an hour and kept inching up slowly thank goodness! We found out as started moving that there was 4 semis that all went off the road together, so they were forcing the semis to pull over so the rest of the cars could get by. That road was like an ice skating rink it was just a think sheet of ice!

My car became frozen due to the freezing rain! My mirrors were impossible to scrape!


All the semis that had to be pulled over. The line of semis seemed to never end!


The rest of the way, the roads were just wet which we Once we got to Twin Falls, it was 8:30 at night. So we stayed the night in a hotel so we didn't wake up my brother and his family at midnight! Chelsey was smart and remembered her and her mom stopped at a gas station and found a coupon to get a room at the AmericInn for only 59 bucks. So we did that gas station and found the same coupon! Chelsey found the funniest "Do Not Disturb" sign that said "No Moleste" under it. I had no idea a Spanish phrase like that existed!



We left at 8 Friday morning and still had clear roads. Once we got to Aaron's it was great seeing the boys! Asher kept us pretty entertained while we were there. And Abbott was just dang cute!



We went to Texas Rodehouse for lunch and played Monopoly the card game version later that night. I left for Brianne's around 2 Saturday, and after getting some groceries got to her place around 3:30! I am so excited to be here and be able to live in Utah! I have always wanted to live here because I love it so much!

I'm pretty sure now I will have some more interesting blog posts!
