Rancho Cucamonga!

We all piled back up in the "bus" about 1:30 and headed home for good ol' St. George. It was pretty loud on the way back with Mike snoring, the kids screaming and the "road" California roads are kind of crazy and at one point it got pretty dang bumpy. I thought Gavin was going to have shaken baby syndrome because it was so bad. Mike came up from his trip because it was so bad and thats when Aaron decided to pull over and see what was going on. Well, it comes to find out it was the air pressure/brakes that didn't work. It wasn't the road at all, we just didn't have any suspension. The guys went to go figure out what was going on while we all chilled on the bus. They decided we needed to get it towed so they unloaded the Yukon (mind you we are off the side of the CALIFORNIA freeway) and loaded all 8 kids, Bonnie, Jill and I, and Mike who was driving. I believe 6 of the 8 kids were screaming, Bonnie was almost in tears and the rest of us were laughing. Luckily Rancho Cucamonga isn't like Baker. Oh how I wish we could have broken down there!!! haha/ We found a really nice outdoor mall that had a huge grassy area where we let the kids run around like crazy and then ate at the Cheesecake Factory for dinner to kill more time. After we tore the restaurant apart, the guys were done and we headed home! We made it back at 2 AM and went to bed! The trip was great but its nice to be home and get back in a routine! We made it YAY! I do have pictures but I can't find the cord to my camera so I'll post those later...

Sounds like you had so much fun! I love all the pics! Traveling with kids is so crazy, you have to be either laughing or crying!
