Big Ol' Vacation

Most of us were gone from July17 - August 21. 

Here's the breakdown.

Marley, Isi, and I flew out to Utah on July 17th. 

We flew out of Esconaba, MI (4 hours away) because it was half the price of flying out of the Soo. Nathan was so nice and gracious about driving us to the airport and then driving all the way home by himself. Then did the opposite when picking us up and in the middle of the night too!

I was nervous to fly by myself with the girls but totally wanted a long vacation. 

It was worth it. The girls flew and traveled like champs, the whole time!

Once we got to Utah we had a couple of days to play with family. 

Marley had the opportunity to get reacquainted and familiar with everyone before Isi and I left to meet Nathan in San Diego. 

We went to the carnival with Sam.

Marley had been wanting to go on a carousel and ferris wheel for like a year. 

She had never been on one and her wildest dreams came true!

 Marley thoroughly enjoyed this worm coaster and Sam did not want to go on it and tried to look bored the whole time.
