Sarah and the spontaneous California road trip (part one)

So I’m in California right now (I know, I know be jealous)

The thing is I wasn't planning on being in California this week.

The plan was on Saturday my family would go down to Monroe so that we would have a shorter drive on Sunday to go to my friend Emily’s farewell in Levan.  After Sacrament meeting my mom and my brother Peter would drive to Tooele to go to my cousin’s farewell. while my dad, my brother Andrew (the one who doesn't get Harry Potter, Doctor Who, or Sherlock and likes My Little Pony) and me went back to Monroe where they would drop me of on their way to California (my dad has a business trip and my brother likes to go along so they can have some boy bonding time or whatever)

I was totally cool with this plan I was going to get some stuff done while in Monroe have a whole house to myself have a truck at my disposal if I wanted to go to the store. I was also going to have a Harry Potter Movie marathon with my blue ray box set of all the Harry Potter movies.

All that changed when we were back in Monroe after Emily’s farewell and my dad gave me the option of going with them. And my brain went like this

Ohhh California YES

But wait that’s like 10 hours in the car with my brother NO THANK YOU

Dad just offered beaches YES

But I planned to stay here. I can’t change last minute NO

California, fluffy hotel beds, beaches, vacation   YES

It went on like this for a while until the no side thought it came up with the nail in the coffin

But mom doesn't know I’d be going to California NO

Dad called mom she says go. Beaches, California, vacation, our own room in the hotel YES

I already had a suitcase packed with a week’s worth of  clothes so into my dad’s truck it went and so did I on a road trip I found very familiar( Wishing my Music Trip friends from High school were here *many long distance hugs*)

So here I am typing my first blog post out of state. And I’m glad I came.
