home to utah: wasatch back relay "ragnar", a weekend with aubry.
utah to jackson hole, wyoming: a night with grandpa pack, sylivia, and "the dogs".
jackson hole, wyoming to island park, idaho: a week reunioning with most of the frederiksen side (we missed you petersons).
island park, idaho to rexburg, idaho: a nostalgic afternoon.
rexburg, idaho to home: late saturday with a stop off in glenns ferry for an antler. (important agenda item)
10 days on and off the road, there is lots to say, but let's start at the beginning-UTAH!
i love visiting utah, i love the people, the shopping, the scenery. i love it, it is my home away from home.
we dropped spencer off with his team in kaysville at my sister in law's parent's house late thursday, and then the kids and i crashed with aubry. us girls and harrison had a shopping, eating, playing day, while spencer ran various 6-8 mile legs between logan and park city. they did awesome btw, toot toot! BUT don't ask him about his medical tent story. it's gross, like i almost passed out gross. i have the shivers now just thinking about it.

SO, we started our day at tulie bakery where i picked up 4 breakfast pastries, FOUR naturally, and then we made our way south, picking up a few duds for the kids at american apparel and h&m. once in provo, we met annie from annilygreen and bearcavestudios who so generously helped us out on a top secret project, and then we met up with susan of freshlypicked for THE BEST snow cones. do you know freshly picked moccasins? i am obsessed, check them out here. after licking the cups clean, susan took us back to her place to see her studio and scour her goods. i came out with two pairs of moccs and the gold mousepad, LOVE. her kids are as sweet as those little shoes, and her little boy gus with his mop of hair and entourage of care bears stole my heart. that boy.
we met olive's "salt lake friends" addison and liam on saturday for lunch at culvers. (moment of silence...mmm, butter burgers) and then we all headed back north for a lazy day by the pool and splash park.
aubry and ryan-(who managed to escape undocumented as well as his rockstar haired son liam) made the most amazing kabobs that night, spencer rolled in from ragnar and lara surprised us on her way back to colorado from california just in time to dig in. jen and baby NAVY came by for a bit too and it was great, sooo great you guys! gosh, is there anything better than good families and kids and a pool and sunshine. heaven. i live for summer.
aubry free handed the most amazing art piece for me at 1 am that morning and i am in love with it. she needs to open a shop right, RIGHT?!
sunday morning goodbyes, and on to jackson hole.

It's like watching the fabulous life of...on VH1. Seriously, it all sounds pretty glamorous! I didn't see a mention of any stops in manhattan though. Jealous of your gold mousepad! I need better connections : )
I had no idea that you knew Susan and Annie. I know them both and see them every month at different events in Provo, like Creative Collaborative. Wish we could have seen you. Life looks good for you and your family. How fun! Love your hair! So sweet!
YES being the driver is WAY better! absolutely.
and that van they had for the ragnar is amazing!
I like you so much. This makes me want to road trip myself straight to your front steps. And I will. I'll call you to iron out the details. It's on!
