Whew! What a trip! On the final stretch home from Vegas I was so tired and drank about a gallon of caffeine, a bag of puffy cheetos, and candy corn. Yuck! Later that night I had crazy shakes! But we did make it home!

We loved every minute of our trip! Thank you to everyone for making it such a great trip!

Ok seriously, you know way too many people in UT! But this sounds amazing - I love experiences like this. Of course, you do need a vacation after these types of vacations!!!! When we lived in UT for the summer, my drives to and from relied on those large tootsie rolls and coke - Oh barf!
