Our Delayed Honeymoon ;)

Jayme heard about a job opportunity with his Cousins business in ND. Knowing this would be a major decision that would bring about MAJOR changes he felt we needed to drive the 18 hrs. there to check out not only the job, but the area we would live and see if it was something for our family or not. Taking into account the 18 hr. drive and all of the stuff we wanted to do while there we made the decision to leave Leta behind and take the honeymoon we never had :)
So the day after her big party we took off for my parents for the first night and enjoy a brief visit with them, then we stopped briefly in Idaho Falls at the Temple and a stop in there Visiting Center which happened to have on display amazing sculptures of Christ, I wish I remembered the Lady's name who did it she was awesome! Then it was onto ND or Bust...

Christ walking on Water, my favorite Statue!!
Idaho Falls Temple



Our love shake ;) I wish we would have had more than one night it was so cute and cozy


Teddy Roosevelt National Park...It had some beautiful scenery and fun rock formations


Some really random funny hay things



Mount Rushmore at Night

Custer South Dakota and Custer State Park, My Favorite of the trip :)
Play fighting
Begging Burros!

We had to roll up the windows they kept trying to get in further LOL







American Presidents Wax Museum, Rapid City SD really cool and informational but a bit on the boring side..



Cosmos in Rapid City It's fun if you don't give it to much thought and pretend to be wowed by the optical illusions which I was and Jayme wasn't



Mount Rushmore in the Day...You can't help but feel proud to be american...

They played a video of the making and history of the monument then they had everyone rise and join in singing of the Star Spangled Banner as they slowly lit up mountain and then called up the vets or those now serving there country up and had them assist in taking down the flag for the evening, I bawled, again I am so proud of our country and those who keep us free!



Okay so Yes I am an Active member of the LDS Church, But I couldn't help but stop and take a picture with these Virgin Mary who was five stories tall..
Cheyenne Wyo
A stop on I 70 in Colorado, for wiper blades
Mator...He was at a car show next to the Manti Temple
We got to Manti and went through a session, it was our first in that Temple since we where sealed there four yrs ago. It was interesting being a live session :)
It was a blast and we felt so much closer when we got home, we defiantly will do another trip with just the two of us again!
And yes we made a decision, we are moving to ND!!
*The pictures are not in the best order I was going through two files for them and got some jumbled
