August Vacations....Part One

    Jason and I have had a crazy couple of weeks, fun, but busy! One of Jason's best friends was getting married in Sedona, Arizona on August 3rd. And one of my best friends moved to Florida a few months ago and I have been wanting to go visit her. We had both of these plans in mind along with our Hanks family vacation in St.George from Aug. 11-18. Since I work for a school, I was on Summer break. So Jason and I decided that as soon as finals were over we would head to Arizona for the wedding, Florida to visit my friend Vanessa, and then straight to St. George to be with our family. Everything sounded great. Then we received a call that flying to Arizona was out of the picture. ALL the flights were full! Not only did we need to get to Arizona for the wedding but we purchased our tickets to Florida from the Phoenix airport. We needed to get there! So Friday night after my last final we drove to St.George, slept, woke up early and proceeded onto Sedona. We made it in plenty of time and we had a blast at the wedding. When the wedding was over we drove 2 1/2 more hours to Jason's brother, Tyler's home to stay with him and his family. We spent a relaxing Sunday with them before heading to Florida on Monday morning. Bright and early Monday morning we were heading to Florida! I could not wait to see my friend. Once we got there we felt a lot less stress about everything that had been going on. We had a blast with Vanessa and her husband Clayton. Our trip consisted of the beach, aquariums, eating, and even driving to Orlando for the theme parks. It was awesome! I already miss her so much already! :( After Florida we flew to St.George to meet up with our family. More to come....

After knowing that we had a long drive ahead of us I decided to run to the library to see if they had any good books on tape. I had some help choosing...

 What Jason and I looked at for hours!

Finally to Florida!!

Can't wait to visit again!
