Quick Trip to Cedar

We didn't get to visit my family over the Christmas holiday, so we took a quick trip down this weekend to see them. Greg was able to get Friday off, and we frantically packed Thursday when he went home, threw the Sofi Loaf in the "chokie" (that's what we call her carseat) and away we went. We thought we were being smart to beat the storm that was supposed to come in on Friday; we were sorely mistaken. We survived the traffic of Salt Lake County we thought we were home free until we hit Utah County where the snowflakes were some of the biggest I've ever seen. The lines in the road were completely gone, and the only way we knew we were still on the road was because of the noise strips. It was crazy! We also had random fog patches clear until Nephi, where it seemed to disappear. Long story made short, it took us a lot longer to get to Cedar than we though.

Playing with grandpa on his lunch break.
Sofi still read the books while Grandma took a phone call.
She wasn't too sure about having a bath in the sink ... 
Greg helped take down the Christmas lights. It was a beautiful day!
Sofi wasn't too sure about the snow... or cold cement ... or not being held. It's a toss up.
This is right before Greg almost dropped her in the snow bank.
Sofi love, Love, LOVED Grandma's kitty
She was quite the little traveler on the wood floor. I wish we had some where we lived.
She loved being the center of attention all weekend.
We escaped to the local Pizza Cart restaurant. 
It's a fun little place. They make you your own pizza right there in their pizza oven.
My cousin Alex reported his mission from Korea on Sunday, so it was fun to see him after 2 years. A lot has changed and he got to meet Sofi. He goes to the U so I've already told him we will take him to lunch one day. 

Poor Lacy was trapped in the bathroom while we packed to leave.
On our way home
It's always hard for me to leave; especially after having so much fun. Greg has some long hours ahead of him the next few months, so I'm already planning our next trip down. It's always fun to have a place to call home.
