Sis & Koda's Gym Review~1/20/2010 & J's Lindon Meet~1/23/2010

Koda and Sis had their gymnastics review on Wednesday. Koda has just started going two hours a week, because he wants to "make the team like Jdog"! Both Sis and Koda did a great job~Bailia has finally mastered her back handspring, without the help from her coach. Koda loved hanging out with Coach Robbie, Coach Jermey, and showing off on the rings!





I feel like I haven't slept since the Las Vegas meet. We drove up to Salt Lake on Friday, and headed to Jed's to use his internet to get a hotel. We didn't book a hotel earlier because we honestly didn't know if we would actually make it up, with the weather reports saying it was going to be mess driving. Adam got on Priceline, and couldn't find a room in Salt Lake-we are sure they were so busy because of the Sun Dance Film Festival. So, we tried the Provo area, it ended up giving us a hotel in Springville! That wouldn't have been a big deal, except for the fact that Springville wasn't even on the map of areas that the hotel could be in! Adam decided to call Priceline to let them know that they gave us a hotel that was a 15 minute freeway drive from where their map told us we would be! They of course didn't do anything, other than try to fight the situation, the first guy admitted that they gave us a hotel outside of the mapped area, but said he couldn't do anything for us. He passed us onto his supervisor, and she told us that there are actually two Spingville's in Utah. Odd~she must know more about the state of Utah than we do-I have never heard of a state having two cities with the same name!
To make a long story short we didn't stay in the hotel that we paid for in Springville. After going to dinner at the Market Street Grill with my parents and Jed & Nikki, at 6:30 and not getting out of there until almost ten, then walking out into a snow storm, we just wanted to get to the closest hotel as fast as we could! So we started out on the freeway getting as far south as we possibly could, the storm just got worse and the roads were a mess!
We finally ended up at a La Quinta-we have always had good experiences with La Quinta, but not this time. If it hadn't been after midnight, I would have got my money back and gone to another hotel! I could barley fall asleep thinking about the 13 pubic hairs that were on the bathroom counter and floor. But the kids were exhausted, so we stayed.
Adam and I finally fell asleep just after one, and woke up to Bailia screaming at 6:20 because Jaden had turned on the bathroom light, and woke her up. UGH!
