Couches and Car Rides

This weekend was great and terrible at the same time. Travis' dad, step-mom and brother came up from California to visit. This was great because Travis' dad got a new truck which is HUGE so when we bought new couches it was perfect for bringing them home. We've been sitting on a futon since we moved to Cedar City and it's been terrible. Those are the worst things ever! It started going flat a week after we bought it. So we got some sweet couches from Big Lots and we are soooo happy! Then on Saturday we went to the temple, which was great but we went with Travis' dad and step-mom and his step-mom's mom. The only problem is that his step-mom's mom drove (she's about 70) and she won't let anyone else drive her car and she won't take the highway. We live kind of far from the temple, about 35 min by the highway. And on our way there, she took a minor highway so we could get there on time for our session but on the way home she refused to take the highways. It took us 3 hours to get home! We did make two stops to get food and to drop in on some visiting family (which I'm not a big fan of anyway) so that takes out one hour. So what should be a 35 min drive took us 2 hours, with a very full car. I thought I was going to scream by the time we got home. It was terrible! It totally ruined the temple awesomeness. Never again! But at least I got to come home to these sweet couches. Now we just need some pillows for them.


And the pretty temple.
