Sittin' In Nebraska! :)

The girls and I left last Thursday to drive out to visit Grandma & Grandpa Meier in Nebraska for a few days. We were originally going to leave and drive back to Utah on Sunday, but with the weather being just terrible across Wyoming (the interstate was shut down most of the day) we decided to wait and see what the roads were like this morning. Well, I set the alarm to go off at 6:00 and I checked the road conditions at 6:30 there were still some closures so I talked with Travis (he had to work and couldn't come with us) and then to Grandma & Grandpa and we decided that we should just stay put and not try to take off today. Wyoming DOT opened up I-80 at about 10:30, but when I just checked it, after getting back from town at about 3:00 most of the Westbound routes on I-80 were closed again. So it is a good thing we didn't go or we could be stuck somewhere in the middle of no-where! We got stuck on Elk Mountain on our way out here for about 1/2 hour, but it was a good thing that both of the kids were asleep and that was our only obstacle so far this trip. When Grandma & Grandpa came out in December, it took them nearly 2 days to get out to our house! Well, we have been having a lot of fun and I have taken a lot of pictures! I may try to post some later or I will do it when I get home, if I get home! :) :)

By the way, it is snowing outside here as I am typing this!!!! :)

Easter 2008

The title says it all!!! We colored our Easter Eggs before we went to my Mom's on Saturday.

Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma's House

My Mom had the annual Easter Egg hunt for the Grandchildren at her house on Saturday before Easter, and all of the kids had a great time! Thanks Mom!!!

Easter Egg Hunt at The Park!

We went to our City's Easter Egg Hunt and Bekka along with her friend Avery cleaned up!!!! Here are some pictures! I told them to run past all of the bases into the outfield and that is exactly what they did...they ran out past all of the other children because the other children stopped to pick up candy that was close to them that they saw the girls cleaned up once they got to the outfield! It was alot of fun, we had never taken the kids to one of the hunts with the City before. After that, we went with our neighbors to breakfast and went and picked up some stuff to work out in the yard.

Just before they had the kids line up.

Waiting for the whistle to blow

Catie watching TV....

She learned all of this from watching Daddy!!!! :)

Hmmmmm......I am not sure how this thing works, but lets try it out.

Maybe if I slobber ALL over it, it will work for me!

Yup, here is my favorite show!!!!!

What are you looking at? I figured it out!!!

Our Personal Mud Hole!!! :)

This afternoon after we got home from picking up Bekka from school, she wanted to go outside and play in the mud in our front yard! I could hear her yelling for me from inside the house and I went out to see what was the matter and she had gotten herself stuck in the mud half way up her calves!!!! So I tried to pull her out and she was really stuck!!!! So I pulled her out of her boots and those were still stuck in the mud and after she was out, I pulled out the boots! I can't wait for it to get warmer and dry out this mud hole we have!
