I dont know what to title this?

Well a couple of things...first of all I had Amber & Cody blog spot on my blog and today I happen to look at it and thought to myself who are they???? Ooops wrong blog spot of some other Amber and Cody. Oh my word I feel like I am loooooosssing it!

Landan, myself, Shaun, Jessy and Trevor all went to Las Vegas for the Conexpo(Very large equipment expo) We took Landans plane but before we left Billings the right engine starter went out so we had it replaced and off we went. All was well had a good time in Vegas. We enjoyed ourselves for the most part. Then we went to leave Vegas...I dont know if any of you have ever imagined what it would be like to get stuck there and have no way out or try to get out and every time you try something goes wrong and prevents you from leaving...I have never had that happen to me any where in my life. I figure well you board a plane and you leave or you rent a car and drive away. Sounds easy....well Im here to tell you its not! I probably never will understand until the here after. I think we were being watched over but at the same time we really wanted to go home. We were number 2 in line for take off and we were all ready to go home expect Jes and I thought we could use a day at the spa, but none the less we were going home and we were glad to be. So Landan makes his final call into tower and the mic gets stuck (which means everyone can hear us, tower, other pilots etc) and we know its stuck so we remain quiet and then we see the GPS start flashing and the electronics crap out! So Landan and I are shuffling things around he whips the plane around and aborts take off, Shaun and Jessy sitting in the back wondering what the heck is going on?? We finally get tower back and we end up parking it and needing electronics looked at. Long story short we sit in Vegas for another 2 days (jessy and I go to spa) yippie we wanted to stay all day but they guys kept calling us... SOOO we thought we will send Jessy and Shaun home via another airline they go to the airport and there flight is delayed 5 hours. Mind you its due to leave at 8:30pm and then the flight is delayed 5 hours....they have a 1 yr old with them. So I say forget it come back to the hotel. So Then we think rent a car and drive to Provo for them so they dont have to wait around for us and the airplane...I call the rental place.... yes you can take the car out of state...Jessy and Shaun start driving and call to set it up they are taking the car out of state and get a NO you cant take the car out of state...ok so book another flight...oh no they have tripled in price and so have the hotel rooms...oh dont forget Landan forgot some of his clothes at the other hotel and now is commando...same with Shaun. Well by this time and day I have to get home because I have 3 kids who need me...Josie had dance competition and let me tell you she has worked her butt off for this and I really need to be there or she would never forgive me...so I get a one way home and here I am writing this to tell you Shaun, Jessy, Trevor and Landan are all stuck in Utah. Thats as far as they have made it due to weather. But they are visiting with friends and family and I hope all is well for them. I still dont know when they will make it home. Maybe in the Spring?? It was suppose to be a four day trip and is going on 8 days tomorrow...Jessy keeps telling herself well it could be worse "could be stuck in Sidney" as Shaun and Landan roll there eyes. I will update with some pictures and let you know when they make it home safely...oh to top it off they might have to re-route to Tulsa OK because Landan has a job he needs to see on Wed. Have fun in Oklahoma! OH MY WORD!!! Its never gonna end.
Oh PS Josie took first in her duo and received 3 ruby's for her other dances! I'll download pict. later....
