ROAD TRIP

This weekend Aasha and I took our first ROAD TRIP together and we had a wonderful time!!! We left after sacrament meeting to Kennewick. (in the Tri- Cities) As we were leaving it had started to snow in North Bend and just barely stick to the ground, so we were a bit nervous because it was supposed to continue snowing all the way until Monday night when we were planning on going home. We got to Kennewick in good time and had no troubles. We got to our dear friends, the Claybrooks around 2 pm.

We visited for a while and then Aasha and I helped Kristi make some pumpkin pie, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and pumpkin chocolate chip bread from scratch. After cleaning up from all of that we packed up the cookies and piled into their van and headed over to their grandparents house for a big Sunday dinner. We had a grand time!When we got home we made up some bean dip (it was supper good and super easy- 1 can of refried beans, 1 can of chili and 1 box of cream cheese, warm up and serve with chips)and watched "The Testament" which is a super good movie for any of you who havent seen it. After the movie we realized that we had not yet cooked up the bread so while we waited for that to cook Kristi, Aasha and I played Phase 10... like always I came in last, but we had tons of fun!!!

About 5:30 in the morning i had Audrey, Nicole and their cat climb onto the couch to sleep with me. SO CUTE!!!! We then had a pancake breakfast and after that Aasha and I packed up. We then headed out for our trip home. Things didnt seem to get too bad until we got to the pass. You could not see the roads, it was windy and snowy and were in two white outs. But Aasha proved herself to be a good and talented driver. Good Job Aasha!!!

Thank you so much sis for a wondeful trip!!! and Thank you Claybrooks for a fun visit!!!
