Adventures in Wyoming (Part 6)

We are on the last bit of our stay here in Wyoming. We leave next week to go home to Oklahoma. I have bitter sweet feelings about leaving here. It has been such a neat experience to be able to spend so much time here in my home town with all of my family. My girls have really gotten to know their grandparents and great-grandmothers and other extended family. They have also made some really good little friends. It will be sad to say good bye to all of them.
Thank you to everyone who has made our stay here so wonderful. A very special thank you to my wonderful mom and dad, who without fail, always are there for me when I need them. They have made me and my girls feel at home here and have shown us such love. I am once again, eternally grateful to them.


We went to Sheridan to have a sleep over with my sister's family. We ended up driving home throught this rain storm that created a ton of fog on the top of the mountains. It was 34 degrees outside and my poor children were dressed for summer time. Only in Wyoming is it 34 degrees in August! I'm so glad my mom was with me, it made it less scary.

We made some sugar cookies the other day. I was so sure that Alyssa would frost a few and get sick of it and leave me to frost all the rest. She fooled me, she sat there for an hour and frosted every single cookie! This shot show her concentration!

My sweet little Bella! This picture was just proof to me that it does matter that you have family prayer with your children every night. This picture I was lucky to get. We just were about to kneel down for prayer, and I looked over and my 21 month old baby girl was kneeling and folding her arms waiting patiently for someone to pray. I'm probably biased, but it was very sweet!

Going down the frog tongue water slide. It was so cute!
