THE BIG MOVE!

Well, it has been two months now since our big move from Halifax, Nova Scotia to Tremonton, Utah but we thought we should post it any way. Our trip across the country went pretty smooth considering we had three little kids in a small Ford Focus. We left at 6PM on a Saturday night and decided to pull an all-nighter since the kids were sleeping so sound. We drove over 1,000 miles straight and arrived in Palmyra, New York to see the church history sights at 10:30AM on Sunday. We were pretty tired, so we didn't stay there long and headed to my sister's house in Buffalo, New York. We had a great time hanging out with them for three nights. We then pulled another long 16 hour day and drove another 1,000 miles straight to Jared's cousin's place in Des Moines, Iowa. We had a great time visiting with them for 2 nights. We then were hoping to drive another 1,000 miles in a day all the way home, but about half way across Nebraska we got caught in a terrible blizzard and they closed the freeway. Luckily, we found out the road was closed in the early afternoon because we got one of the last hotel rooms. We ended up traveling the next day on slippery roads for two hours, but the rest of the drive was great. We arrived at our new home in Utah the following Saturday!
