About a week ago, Juma announced to us that he had "president's week off school." I asked him if he meant President's Day. "No, the week!" So I checked the schedule and realized he did have the whole week off, after all. How's that for involved parenting?
Thinking about that week of no school, I thought of my family in Utah...and convinced Justin he loved me enough to make the drive out from California with us. So we're in Utah for this week, and visiting my family--parents, 6 siblings plus their spouses and children--as well as some of Justin's relatives. Juma is having a blast so far with his cousins, with more playing to come.
My plan had been to surprise everyone at Sunday dinner by just walking in to my parents' house, but I found out everyone is sick over at my parents' place, so most people weren't going to be there (besides the 8 people who live there now). Too bad that didn't work out. Still, it's fun to be here.

That is so fun that you drove to Utah for a week. I love it! I wish you could have surprised the family too, but oh well. I'm sure it was still fun because they really weren't expecting you. :)
