Dress of the Week and Trip to Regina




This picture pretty much sums up T today. She was CRANKY.


The awesome scenery on the way home from Regina. Flat, snow, and every once in a while even a silo. =) Ok, there is one large dip in the road on the 6 1/2 hour journey so not totally flat the whole way.
We had a great trip. Matthew's parents were very kind and watched our kids for us while we went. We enjoyed seeing the Temple there and visiting with friends that we have not seen for quite a while.
The only mishap was on the way back. We were close to home. We don't really have freeways were we live, just highways. So every time there is a stoplight, the speed limit goes down. Matthew was driving and slowed down to the appropriate speed, then he sped up again to the normal highway limit after the light... but a few feet before the sign. So he got a ticket. We were trying to be really careful and go close to the speed limit too the whole trip. Anyway, just a warning to everyone. Don't start speeding up till after you pass the speed limit sign. Apparently officers are extremely anal.

it doesn't look like there is much else for officers to do out there, so that is good right?

I am looking forward to automatic/computer controlled vehicles.

That's a good way of looking at it, Kara. Not enough drunk drivers to pull over here. =)

... or maybe teleportation devices so that we can get to anywhere in seconds. Beam me up, Scotty. Maybe not, but technology keeps advancing, so I'm sure someone will think of something that I can't even imagine that will change transportation as we know it. Until that time, I will just have to be more careful to wait till after the speed limit sign to increase speed. And stop more on the side of the road, for my kids to use the restroom.

I know, right? Has your hubby been telling the other cops or something to go for the red minivans? It has to be some kind of conspiracy. lol.
