Wyoming Pics

Baptism & House Warming

We went up to Afton Wyoming yesterday to see my cousin Holly's daughter Hannah be baptised. It was a really fun trip because Mark and Holly just bought a beautiful home on 5 acres with a beautiful view of the mountains. Montana and Hannah went riding around on their 4 wheeler on their property. Holly is used to it and it didn't bother her a bit- but I look out the window and Hannah is driving in her baptism dress, Montana is on the back, in her dress holding on for life. They were splashing thru the mud and having all kinds of fun. Montana had the biggest smile ever.

The church the baptism was at was the most beautiful LDS church I have ever seen. It was like a castle. I had to take pictures of it.

Also we went to Uncle John and Aunt Sherma's cabin after for some chit chat. We absolutely love it up there and go every chance we get. It's a small town and mountains all around. If we could take our jobs with us, we would move there in a heartbeat.

This isn't the greatest quality but you get the general idea. Most of the time she is front and center.

Hard Work

Cute little backyard corner
Brick pavers for our new patio
Newly painted doors (yes, it's black, and I love it!)
Front yard flowers

We have been trying to spruce up our yard the last few days. We trimmed our way overgrown tree in the front yard, planted some flowers, reseeded some bare patches of grass, and we are still in planning mode for our patio in the backyard. Eric hauled home 1200 red brick pavers from someone at his work who donated them to us for- FREE- We love anything that is free. So they are sitting there looking pretty in a pile. It took about 800 trips to get them all from the trailer to the back yard because they are quite heavy. It was a family project. I am not looking forward to moving them again- but we are determined to get the yard looking good this year. Wish us luck!
