We've made it to Utah safe but not quite so sound. Here's the low down:
-over 1900 miles in a huge penske truck, not so comfortable
-got the truck stuck in mud at hotel, second time this has happened
-flat tire only one hour away from my parents, waited for over three hours
-ran into medal barrier at gas station, bent the bumper, sheered off three screws
But like I said, we made it safely. Just glad we're here.

Oh honey!!!! I miss you already but I'm glad you got home safe! And it's making me second guess using the Penske truck for our move!!!:)
Wow. Some luck you have! I'm glad you made it safely. Can't wait to see you in May!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You going to be there long? I think I might be coming out to SLC the end of next week. Not sure what I am doing yet, or who I am staying with, but if I am there and you were there, it would be great to see you! Glad you guys made it safe. xoxo
What an adventure~ Sounds like fun. We sure miss you guys and are kind of in denial that you are even gone. Are you sure you're in Utah?
What a cool story! Someday you laugh at all the mishaps along way...afterall, they make life interesting, right?!
Don't forget to hit up Albertson's while you are close to one. I know how much you've missed it! Ha!
I am glad that you only had to drive to Utah in that thing! I know at the time it probably wasn't funny, but reading your story I just couldn't help but laugh (sorry). We all get the pleasure of experiencing some of "those" kind of road trips every once and a while. You guys should be good for the next couple of years now, right! =)
uh... I never received a call "letting me know you arrived safely"??? Did Kenzie have a good time? I hope you guys made it in time to swim!
Oh goodness!!! I am glad that you guys made it safe! I hope you took pictures of the truck!
MAN that stinks! Sometimes when it rains it pours I tell ya. At least you finally MADE IT and are safe!
Ok - I read your comment about getting a flat tire in Morgan - I am so jealous!!!!! You should have called me because I could have had someone there in 10 minutes. We miss you already but I know you were ready to move onto a new phase - can't wait to hear about your adventures.

I'm so glad that I found your blog! looks like everything is going well for you guys! andi0610@hotmail.com
YAY!!! I can't wait to see you tomorrow!!! I'm charging the camera as we speak -or really as I write.....
Hey girly! Glad you made it! So how far of a drive is it to Disney world? I can't wait to get to Alabama too bad we weren't there at the same time.
I am sure its nice to be HOME! But... we miss you here already. So, I am not coming out to Utah in May any longer. I won't be out until oct. 13th-20th. If you are in Utah at that time, we should get together. I hope all is well. Keep me updated.
Well congrats Nate on graduating!! That is a huge accomplishment among the many others in your life! And way to go Mindy for your support for Nate, I am sure it hasn't been all fun and games for you, my sister's husband joined last August and she had a hard time with paperwork and the whole military adjustments. Well we are excited to see you guys soon, we need to arrange a day to do pictures and go do something fun! Call me when you get back from Washington!!
That stinks! So glad you two were safe. We had a similar situation going from Utah to NEbraska when we were 1st married. Our battery died 30 minutes from my grandparents and it took 3 hrs to get there. ARGH!!! I'm sorry about your trip! I still can't believe you guys are actually gone. :(
