Moving!

A week ago today we left Bloomington, Il. I cannot even believe a week has already gone by! We were going to leave on the 24th but we ended up packing up the truck earlier than anticipated so we thought might as well get on the road!

While we were finishing up our odds and ends, I put Cambree in her swing...poor thing really needed a nap.

 

Here's our truck loaded up and ready to go!

 

Let me just say that it is a 23 hour drive non-stop. Yes, it was a LONG drive! We left Tuesday around 4pm and arrived in Utah on Thursday about 5pm. My dad flew out from Georgia to help us drive the rental truck, it was so nice to have him help us. We honestly couldn't have done it without him! I also enjoyed chatting away with him, SO nice to have company!

I bet you are wondering how Cambree did on such a long drive? Well she was AMAZING! We couldn't have asked for a better baby as a passenger. She of course fussed a little bit but once we put a movie on she stopped whining. She did sleep a lot in the car which meant sleeping at our hotel was awful. We didn't check in till late both nights, which threw her off completely. But I'm glad she was an angel in the car :)

 

 

And of course we can't forget Roxy! She actually was the best traveler, just slept the whole time!

 

I thought it was somewhat a pretty drive. Really there isn't much to look at driving to Utah.

We however stopped here in Iowa...

 

Good old Nebraska...

 

 

At a rest stop in Wyoming they had a monument for Ab Lincoln, which of course reminded us of Illinois...

 

 

And near the end of our trip we drove through a downpour. We couldn't see anything out our windows. At least it lasted only for about 5 minutes. Here's some pics before we entered into the rain...

 

 

And 1400 miles later we arrived in beautiful Utah!

 

Hopefully we don't have to make that trip again anytime soon, or at least not driving!
