we woke up early yesterday morning to start our journey up to canada. we were on the road at 7am...and matt was drinking red bull by 10!
i don't know how he drinks that stuff. even the smell of it makes me feel gross. but as long as it keeps his eyes open and our car on the road i'm happy.
being in a car for 10 hours always makes matt and i a little loopy. (the red bull probably doesn't help!)
we start out normal, but by half way through the drive we are nuts. it makes for lots of laughs and fun memories. and it helps the time go by faster. but we are always grateful that we don't have any one else driving with us, because we are pretty sure they wouldn't want to be our friends after seeing that side of us!
chet was such a good boy on the drive. we were able to do the trip in 10 hours this time. last time it took us 12. and the time before it took even longer.
thanks chet :)
we are excited to spend time with our family and friends while we are here in calgary. we have already done lots of visiting. chet has been loooved by his cousins. (well, some of the 21.) it has been too fun.
cousin jane...
cousin mac...
matt and i were playing around with google maps this morning. you could waste a lot of time on there. it's unreal. matt and i were finding some of the places we went to in france and some of his favorite places from his mission. now he is 'france-sick'. we CAN'T WAIT to go back there again. the plan is to go as a celebration when matt graduates. sooo hurry up matt.
