Fun fun and more fun...

We love going to the Russell's what a great family!!!

Cloe is so sweet!!  I love all her quirkiness! :)

She can't leave the animals alone, the chickens just aren't fast enough.

This horse is so cuddly!  Don't turn your back she'll snort in your ear, well she did in my ear. 

Dryer balls for my oils, paige loved bouncing them.

I've got great kid and grey friends!!

Help it grow

We went to Lovell to do some shopping and we found a great earth day fair.  The girls got to make clay out of soil and they got to dance with smokey, Paige couldn't get enough of him.  My mom was in town for the recital weekend and it sure was a last we also got to take home trees although my moms are leafing already and I think I may have killed mine.  The girls also got to pet goats and we got to take home pens, wildflower seeds, and t shirts,  the girls also got sworn in as junior rangers and took home badges.  Then we went out to lunch and got chocolate from the queen bee for dessert.  And we did get to shop too...I got a new dress for my birthday, thanks mom!  What a Great day!

I've also planted a lot of flowers and seeds in the garden and some that I started in the house, that was fun and we also have a vege garden too.  I didn't know a person could love their "babies" so much.  I love to water them, weed them,  and look at them. :)

"Be the Best Me"

Our spring dance recital this year was a success here are some pictures to prove it! :). It is always a relief to have it done!

Littleton

So after a short nice trip in Casper...with swimming and face paint... We made a quick trip back home to get Brent to drive to Denver.

My Grandpa Tom passed away and we headed to the funeral.

My grandpa always had a sense of humor. If you were ever in a bind he was there for you. He was thoughtful and fun. I was so grateful to have him at my wedding reception, what a privilege. Brent and I still love how Grandpa Tom and Brent's buddies and my maid of honor were hanging out together at the bar. He was a good man with many talents, he worked hard and raised some good kids too. I'm grateful he was in our lives.


While we were in Denver we took a detour to the butterfly museum it was a blast. Bugs and tarantula's, star fish, and of course butterflies!! I loved it when all Cloe wanted was to touch one of those butterflies but we weren't allowed to unless they landed on our clothes. She kept putting her sleeve out but no butterfly and then this lady said look there's a butterfly on you and Cloe turned and jumped back with a scream. It was pretty funny. Kota had one on her during the butterfly release and then dad had one land on his hat. There were also dancers outside, it was an eventful day.

I most liked being able to see family on the visit. I enjoyed stories and catching up. I enjoyed showing the girls our old playhouse under the stairs. I enjoyed some impromptu shopping with Aunt Polly. I enjoyed our time there, it was a nice trip. Lots of driving but overall very nice!

We even got to stop and see grandma nessi on the way back and went to the movie and saw the Croods. It was a good one and it was fun to go to the theatre.
