We took the scenic route and stopped at the Grand Canyon, which added about 2.5 hours onto our drive. It was the longest day ever! And totally my fault, because I always have begged to go to the Grand Canyon. It was not the best idea with the three little ones and we were rushed to get back on the road. Check it off the list, we saw it and it was totally impressive. I just wish we could have seen more and under different circumstances.
Right after our detour, I got seriously sick with the fever and body aches and was in and out of sleep for the rest of the drive. The kids had a movie marathon and were as patient with me as they could be. We let them choose a treat at a gas station, and out of all the treats, Andrew was so happy they had candy corn and he loved them. Brandon and I both despise candy corn, so this was pretty funny to us.
We did finally make it back to Arizona! I think we left around 8:15a and didn't get home until 10:30p, and although there are some time changes in there to account for, it was still a very long day.

Sometimes the idea seems so much better in theory then when it actually plays out. I always hate when that happens, though. Sorry to hear you go so sick. Worst timing ever!
Is that the north rim? Neither Josh nor I have been to that side! So pretty. Sounds like it was a great trip to Utah!
