Thanks dad for an awesome trip!

So last week my dad comes to me on Sunday and was like hey lets go to Utah this weekend. I look at him and I say are you serious and he was like yea i want to go see an old comp of mine from the mission. But we can't go there for one reason. So he goes ok lets see if Katie Jensen needs a ride home and then that makes too and we can go. So i was like ok dad if you really want to I will go with you. So over the next couple days his comp didn't return his phone calls (his phone was broken). So we didn't know if we were going all week so then on thursday he goes we are just going to go and stalk him till we see him. So what did we do packed up our bags and headed out friday morning at 5:30 bound for utah! So we took turns driving finally we make it utah and he wants to go to see his comp first so we go and he is not home so we leave a note then drive to provo. And set off to find a hotel and its harder then it looks it was graduation weekend so it took us three hotel's till we found one with only two rooms left so after that we went out to dinner with a bunch of friends from utah(Brittany, Heidi, Katie, Bri, Matt, Brandon, John) which was amazing! then the girls went to see date night and cried cause we were laughing so hard like seriously after i my stomach hurt so bad. (Go see it!). So the next day was dad's day we went and picked up katie and her stuff then headed to Calabela's (probably didn't spell that right) where we looked around got a hat. After that we went to his comp's house that he hadn't seen in 37 years so to say the least he was so excitied! So we went and saw him for couple hours and then chatted it up about each others life and it was pretty cute. After that it was time to head to salt lake temple to walk around. Which turned into creepy people watching. Me, katie and dad def sat on the temple grounds just watching brides come on and take their pictures :) it was fun. After that we started the drive home just till elko, nevada then slept for the night then the continued the rest of our journey. Over all great three days. Got to do so much and spend three days with dad.

This is dad with his comp. I really wish that i could do a picture from the mission but dad only has them on slides......

Me and katie creeply people watching!
