Doing it...Sherrill style

If you take a 8 hour road trip, by yourself, when you are 36 weeks pregnant...You're doing it Sherrill style.

If you all bunk up in some extended (or in this case, in-law) family's basement...You're doing it Sherrill style.

If you drive to Yellowstone National park, even when they've predicted a snow-storm...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you pay the $25 entrance fee, even though there are snowflakes as big as quarters...you're doing it Sherrill style.



If you stop at every animal viewing, regardless of whether they are dangerous (hello, coyote)...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you make sure everyone knows it's BISON never BUFFALO (unless you are in India) ...you're doing it Sherrill style. **bison in the background, here:
If you stand around watching for Old Faithful, only to see a big puff of steam...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you stop at every possible sign with explanatory words...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you go to the broken Teton Dam site, because the museum was closed...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you think bowling with a bunch of kids is fun...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you go to the local temple, even in bad weather and even though you've already been there...you're doing it Sherrill style (this one is predominantly Bekah style).

If you like having grandkids/nephews/nieces constantly in your face...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you go to all three hours of church, even on vacation...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you have a sweet baby (the hair is NOT Sherrill style) that you bless (and you get choked up during the administration of the blessing)...you're doing it Sherrill style.

If you have a family that loves to get together, doesn't care about noise, loves the Gospel, fights over newborns, will eat anything put in front of them, and cries when it's time to leave...you're doing it Sherrill style.
(explanatory note: The Sherrills are Jessica's side of the family. Nate (her middle, younger brother) and Kelsie, blessed baby Luke in Idaho Falls last weekend. We are hardcore travelers, visitors, baby-lovers--and we know it.)
