Vacation & July

We spent our week-long vacation in and around Burley, Idaho. There are a few friends and family who were not to happy we didn't come by to see them, but the trip we did make took its toll on me. We left June 26th, as soon as Josh got off of work. With me being pregnant, it took about 10 or 12 hours to get there if I remember correctly. It should've only taken us about 8-9 hours. I literally slept all day Thursday and Friday. The trip seriously wore me out. Saturday we went to Twin Falls and some beautiful surrounding places. Sunday, we of course went to church and hung out at home. Monday, we got new tires and went up a nearby mountain and stopped at a lake on the way back. On Tuesday we left, we made several stops along the way including Tremonton, Brigham City, Payton, St. George, and then Mesquite. I stayed in Mesquite with my mom while Josh came back to work the 4th. That was about the time the fire started up in Mt. Charleston. :( Josh had come back to Mesquite for the weekend and was sick from all the smoke in the air, he even had ash on his car when he left work on Friday. After we came back from Mesquite, I threw myself a pregnancy pity party. I was a bit sad I couldn't do much like hiking, bowling, shooting, or whatever else it seemed like I wanted to do. We planned on getting pregnant and many things that came with having a baby... "losing my independence" as was stated on one of the baby websites was not something I planned on and didn't expect. I was in a funk for like a week, maybe a tad bit longer before I snapped out of it and realized there was about a month before I had to be back to school and there is much to take care of between now and then. One thing is name changes... Finally! I had more to write but I am being kicked off so I will write more soon.
