The kids and I took a quick trip to Wyoming last week to visit Doug's sister. We had such a blast! These pictures are in reverse order but I guess there's no better place to start than at the end!
This is a sign of a fabulous trip. Lilly was totally worn out by the end of it all.

Kim and Bob live in a great house with a hot tub! The kids had such a blast swimming.
Here they are with their completed cars.

Waiting for the movie to start.

Sophia drew this picture and glued it on the side of her car. Her ring finger says "new baby" next to it but it doesn't have a face. I asked why she didn't draw a face for the baby and she told me it was because she doesn't know what it looks like. I had my ultrasound a few weeks ago and she came with me and so I reminded her that we saw the face so we know it at least has a face so she could draw one. I guess she just didn't feel comfortable drawing it without seeing it in real life since the portraits she did of the rest of us were completely spot on.

Kim and Bob have a covered porch around the entire house. It was so fun. The kids had the best time playing out there.

Princess Sophia thought it was so awesome that she could ride a bike inside!

We went to their library too while we were there. It was the best library I've ever been to! Apparently it's 10th in the nation. They had a lifesize chess board.

And the best kids play area ever. They had a blast playing on the Bookmobile. The thing on the right was really cool too. You could send "books" up these conveyor belts and then they'd shoot down and you could repeat the process over and over. They had so much fun.

Outside there was this big decorated boot. I loved the Peter Rabbit characters on the toe.
Evan's girlfriend lives in Laramie. But we did not see the awesome library when we went there. We only saw the football stadium and the pizza hut. You are a brave girl for going by yourself. I don't think I could bring myself to a take a 7 hr drive with the kids.
ReplyDeletewhat a fun trip! congrats for doing it solo!!! I love the drive in movie, idea...I did that when I was younger and thought it was the coolest...we'll have to spice up movie night with that sometime! And that library--wow! I think I would drive out there just to see that. Does anyone actually READ there? :) And I was scanning through your other posts and LOVED the Sophie's connection with you being a slave and asking permission to be physically destructive! Totally cracked me up! Have a good day, Joanna!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Fun trip, awesome library, and awesome house--a hot tub and covered porch around the whole house? No wonder Sophia wants to live there.
