The Gilleland crew had a lovely tour of the southwest this last weekend. As everyone knows, G & G Ross are moving to Utah as they are in the midst of retiring. We hooked up to our trailer Thursday afternoon and made the drive to Page where that evening we loaded up many of the last belongings to move to SLC. We then spent the night in Page and the kids had a ball hangin' with the Martins!
After spending our last night at the Ross home, we took off Sat. morning to head North. Gabe and Seth rode with G&G which was nice since our truck is getting tight as our kids have gotten older. We made it to SLC and arrived at G&G's new house. A car full of enourmous teenagers pulled in behind us and it took a minute to realize it was actually Kim and her kids! They are huge!! Needless to say, with all the Hannay muscle helping, we had the trailer unloaded in no time flat.
As usual, the Hannays were fabulous hosts and we had a lot of fun wrecking their home. We even got to swim at Steve's parent's pool. Our kids had so much fun and worked on their video game skills probably too much. I don't think Elise let poor Lauren out of her sight. The only thing that would have made the day better would have been to have Brad's crew around (we heard they were in Vegas).
After going to Sac Mtg in G&G's new ward (coincidentally the Hannay's ward too) we headed home to Durango Sunday afternoon. We had to be home for Gabe and Seth's football camp which started Monday, or we'd have been tempted to stay and wear out our welcome.
We enjoyed seeing everyone and are excited for G&G to start a new chapter in their lives. their home is really nice and Kim has done an amazing job on their basement. I am thinking of hiring her to do a few home improvement projects I have in mind since she is such a great contractor! Who knew?! We are looking forward to the reunion and hope to see you all there!
