Panguitch, UT

The repair guy took his time getting the van fixed. We got a motel room for Wednesday night and he said that he could probably have us back on the road late Thursday afternoon. He had to order a new radiator from Salt Lake. So, we spent the day in Panguitch with no car and a small amount of food. At 5pm, when the repair guy was putting the van back together, he discovered that a fan blade was broken and he would have to order in another part from St. George and it wouldn't be ready until the next day. Thankfully, my Aunt Cherisse drove down from American Fork to pick up most of us and my dad and Natalie were driving up from Arizona. So, my mom, dad and Natalie stayed Thursday night in Panguitch and the rest of us rode up to Utah County with Aunt Cherisse. The van was finally done the following evening.
Olivia enjoyed beating on Gavin.

But Gavin deflected some of her punches.





Olivia got Gavin's arm in her mouth and started sucking on it...Gavin didn't much care for it.


Gavin and Olivia slept a lot while we were waiting.




One of the beautiful decorations that we enjoyed in the room. The pictures on the wall were all puzzles that had been glued together and framed.

Gavin is getting so big! What fun pictures. That's fun that there are cousins so close in age! P.S. Glad you guys were all okay after your deer experience!

It sounds like you guys had an adventure!!!!! I love all the pictures! Gavin is SO cute! It'll be so fun for him to have so many cousins close in age!!! It looks like Olivia already knows she needs to fight for herself around all those boys! Ha ha! I LOVE all the pics of Gavin sleeping with his mouth wide open!!! Adorable! I am so glad you guys didn't get hurt when the deer jumped into you....I say jumped into you b/c we lived in Virginia and those stupid things come out of nowhere!!! Graham hit one when we lived out there and there is no way he could have avoided it! They do say it's better to NOT hit your brakes when you hit a deer b/c if you do, your cars nose goes down and there is more of a chance that it will go through your windshield!!! So! It's good your mom didn't have time to brake!
