On October 12 Clay will be deployed to Qatar for 6 months. We decided as a family that while he is gone we would go spend so time with family in Utah. Our amazing friends in Cheney helped as pack up all our stuff and put it into storage. Thanks so much for all your help I wish I would have gotten pictures of all the amazing people helping us, we have some great friends in Cheney that we will miss while we are gone.
Once we were all packed up we took a road trip to Utah through Wyoming to see Clay's Mom, Sister and other family. We decided to drive through the night so that Athena could sleep, but every time we tried to take a break she woke up and we would just have to get on the road again. So really non of us got any sleep.
Here we are hanging out at Grandma Barrus' house watching a movie and relaxing after our long drive.
She fell asleep about 2 minutes after she sat down. I think I was sleeping not long after.
We hung out with Grandma and Aunt Natalie for a few days. It was so fun to go to gma's house and see our family.
Athena's first Dilly Bar she loved it and wanted to share with all of us.
We also got to see other family in Wyoming, we went to Clays Aunt and Uncles house and Athena found this kitchen and played with it the whole time we were there.
Four Generations Great Grandpa Emmett, Grandma Barrus, Athena, and Clay.
After Wyoming we took another drive during the day this time, down to Utah.
We are sad to leave our friends in Cheney but excited to spend 6 months around family!
