Last Day on Vaca

Prelude: Last winter I saw a super cute idea on Pinterst (Pintrest, you are so awesome). This particular craft is an easy way to get a souvenir practically free. All you need is a clean baby food jar, which can be decorated a little bit, a trip, and some soil. You go to your given vacation, put the soil in the decorated baby food jar, close the baby jar lid. You now have a 1 ounce unique souvenir that is low cost, compact, and great for any little girls’ show and tell days.

Fast forward to the last day of our vacation. We decided that there really wasn’t a huge rush to get home, since we had all day. Unlike our normal selves, we actually slept in! Yes, we didn’t get up and get going until 7:30! On top of that, we went to a diner for breakfast, which was one of the few times Heidi Anne has been out to eat, much less out for breakfast. She was very shocked to learn you can BUY pancakes-you don’t have to only make them at home.

We had forgotten our jar when we went to Bryce Canyon the first day, so we made a quick pit stop back to the canyon to grab the soil. Now keep in mind Bryce Canyon nearly boarders Arizona and we live in Logan (which is like 15 minutes from the Idaho border) so we had a long trek ahead of us. With the car packed, gassed, and lots of water stored (incase we broke down in the desert) we were homeward bound.
