Trip to Phoenix

So apparently I'm not so good at keeping this thing up to date. The kids and I just got back from a 2 1/2 week trip to Phoenix. We went down to give Brandon a break, he's had tons of papers and tests lately so we gave him some time to take care of things. We only intended to go for a week, but we ended up staying longer because the kids and I got sick and I didn't want to drive home with sick kids. When we got there, we found out that Jason, my brother-in-law, who was on his way back from Texas at the time, was running a fever. I debated on whether or not to leave Brandon's parent's house and go stay with his older brother, but I ended up staying. Bad decision. We did end up leaving after my pregnant sister in law got the flu though.


So things were better until Henry tripped and busted his head open on their coffee table and had to get 5 stitches! Luckily, Aaron and Alisha's neighbor is a doctor and came over right away, he drove us to the Urgent Care where he works and stitched Henry up. We were home within an hour. We are so greatful that he was able to help.

Then both kids developed ear infection, and I caught a cold. Turns out my brother-in-law who was originally running a fever had bronchitis. Great. SO we waited until we were (for the most part) feeling better, and headed home. What an adventure!Jake, Kyra, Cade, Henry, and Haylie

There was a sandstorm on the way back to Utah. It was crazy!
