Confirming Everything

Today was the confirmation day. I made calls to hotels, tour companies, a few resturants and the national park system. We are all confirmed with everything we had reserved and have the information for a few other things we are unsure of doing.

This is a fun job to have to do. It brings the trip really into focus. I have 3 Utah tour books I have been reading and highlighting. today I wrote down lots of the things that we interesting and we are maping and seeing what could go where. We have several things to do listed for each day but there are very few have to's and we are trying to leave a lot of this just up in the air so we can be some what spontaneous.

This weekend I am planning on the WORST part of getting ready for a vacation...... shopping for a bathing suit....eewwwww grossssss

Getting Ready




I really wanted to have a special blog about this vacation. Someplace where I could keep all of my thoughts and journal about the trip and allow others to keep track of out where abouts. Once we are on the road I will update the map to let you all know where we are. For now we are just at home getting ready for vacation.

Roger has created a spread sheet for the grandmothers with all our travel information and the boys schedules. We just packed a box of stuff to ship to our 1st hotel in cedar city. This way we really are only taking light carry ons. The box has my tripod, a few sweat shirts, rogers shaving kit, our sandals and some extra books.

I still have some things to take care of this weekend. I need to get this adorable pink red sox t-shirt. it will go so well with my cute pink red sox sweat shirt and I am SO SO SO tempted to get the matching baseball cap but I just spent $20.00 of a cute Life is Good baseball cap last weekend and I am having a hard time justifying spending another 20.00 on another pink hat. LOL I need to plan out a few meals, buy some new undies (always like to travel with new undies) find my delta skymiles number in order to print my boarding pass and pay some bills.

not sure my vacation prep is going to be anywhere near as exciting as my vacation but I will continue to blog away
