Everyone needs a break now and then


I was so excited to get the call when my fabulous cousin CC called to say she was engaged! Last Saturday was the wedding and Tony and I were so glad to be able to go- We decided to rent a car to drive down because we weren't sure how reliable our own car would be, all in all after gas mileage it would have cost us $30 more if we'd taken our own car so it was totally worth it! Plus we love road trips and it's been forever since we've taken one. Tony's a great driver and I read out loud as we go. We stopped at Hoover Dam on the way down and stretched our legs.

The wedding was great and I found I couldn't stop smiling because I was watching CC the whole time who was beaming! I'm so happy for her and from what I heard and saw of her family her new husband is great and they are so good together!

I got to see a lot of my cousins and aunts and uncles that I haven't seen for years- it was like a mini reunion. A lot of them haven't met Tony so it was fun catching up with everyone.
I don't know when I'll get to see any of them again but I look forward to the next time, and to the next road trip.

Sounds like a fun road trip. I love weddings! How nice to get to see family you haven't seen in a long time.

We keep talking about stopping to see you guys sometime. Maybe we can work something out around Christmas time. We'll be headed to Fruitland...

I am so glad you two got to go. You needed to get away after the very long summer you had.
