Spring Break?

I am pretty sure the girls are out of school for four days for SPRING BREAK....... I guess somebody didn't get the memo!!!! North Dakota is Awesome!!! Sarcasm I think so!!!!

Monster Truck Rally...North Dakota Style

Last night we took the girls to the Monster truck show down....It was exactly what you would expect for North Dakota...need I say more. The best part, the people watching of course. Marcy and Alyssa getting their picture with the lady that drove the pink monster truck. It was their favorite, imagine that. She was really great with them and they thought they were so cool!!!

Nat rockin' her ball cap and ear plugs!! She looked so cute. She loved every minute of the show and she literally cheered and waved for the pink one!!

Hey GRANDPA we are COWGIRLS...huh!!!!!

During the last few days of February we made a trip back to Utah to visit. We really had a great time seeing every one and doing a couple of fun activities. The drive was miserable, as always, but we are so lucky that the girls travel as good as they do!! I think I get tired of it faster than they do. On the way down we hit a pheasant and it put a hole in the front grill, STUPID bird.....pictures to come. When we finally got there after driving all night, grandpa made us breakfast and we slept most of the day. Jordan watched the girls while we went to dinner. They made a huge tent, watched movies and played video games. They were in heaven and Nat was so happy to have her Jordan back!! At dinner we got a chance to see all of our great friends it was so fun and we have not laughed that hard since we were home last :)! The next day we had a great visit with Grandma Elaine and bye bye grandma and grandma Dixie came over for a visit, it was so great!! The girls swam and had a sleepover with their grandmas and had a blast!! They also got a chance to see and sleepover with their BFF's, while Beau and I went to the NRA banquet. We had a great time and won a ton of stuff. A gun, a picture, a spotting scope and a couple other small things. We got to meet some new people, Captain Awesome and his wife ;) they were a ton of fun and had another night full of laughs! I had lunch with my girlfriend, which was way overdue!!! We also got the chance to spend some quality time at the 10-E ranch. It was so great. Blinn took all us girls to do the chores, although we kept him company in the warm truck while the boys did all the work. The girls loved the animals and Nat was so excited to pet the horses, even though they were a little scary. Visiting the horse!!!

The girls posing by the farm truck after we did chores. While riding around Natalie kept saying "hey grandpa we are cowgirls..huh?!?! It was so cute. We can't thank everyone enough for taking us in, feeding us, traveling to meet us, working around our schedule, and just being great. We are so thankful for all of you and miss you all everyday!!!

Where for art thou Gnomeo!!!

We took the girls to see Gnomeo and Juliette. It was a pretty cute show, the girls really loved it!!! As you can tell by the "hot" glasses the girls are sporting it was in 3D. This is the second 3D movie that we have seen, but Nat did a lot better this time. Last time she would not wear the glasses for nothing!! Her's were"stupid" she said. I love family night at the movie!!!

Remember When.....

We had to make home made boxes for Valentines Day?? Since my girls have been in School they have not had to do that. Until this year. Marcy had to make one and we actually had a lot of fun doing it together! I covered it and she decorated it... so cute!!!

Saturday Night Sleepovers

A New tradition that we have since living here in North Dakota is Saturday night sleepovers. The girls will all sleep in one room and watch movie til 10 at night, which is late for them! This is Alyssa and Natalie crammed into Natalie's tent.

This is the view from the outside with the door down :)

I love how close the girls are right now. It is so fun to hear them laughing at each other and talking all hours of the night. They are so so lucky to have each other!!! I hope that they stay as close as they are right now, even though I am sure they will have rough periods in life eventually!!

Back to Work!

Marcy and Natalie washed my car for me and the only one who got wet was me....go figure!! Guess that is what I get for letting them control the water :) They actually did a really good job and we had a lot of fun....Thanks girls!!!
