Winter, Brayden's Bday, Island Park








I thought I would post all of this in one. We took our annual trip to Island Park on the 15th of February. My parents and my brothers family all came. We had a great time visiting, playing in the snow and snowmobiling. There was a lot of snow to play in but the weather was perfect.

On Monday the 18th was Brayden's 5th birthday. We celebrated while we were at the cabin, on the way home and when we got home. He had a great birthday. The present that he liked the most was the snowboard that he got. He loves it and he is getting good at it.

This winter has been a good one around here. I had to include some pictures of our yard and all the snow we have. We have had a beautiful week and it makes me want spring to come. Then I look at all the snow and realize that it will be a long time before we see the grass again!

The twins are doing well and everything is going well with the pregnancy. We are hoping to find out what they are on April 8th.
The house is coming along great. We have the plumbing and the insulation done so now we get to start sheetrock. I am excited!

TWINS!!!!!!!

Yep! It is true. On friday I went to the doctor for my first appointment and on the ultrasound we found out that we are having twins!! I know it is a shock to us too. I have cried many tears over this. Now there is nothing else to do but be excited and look forward to our new arrivals. My due date is in August sometime. We are going to have a very exciting summer. Now we are just working on getting the house finished so we can get moved in before the twins come. We won't be able to find out if they are boys or girls for about 6 more weeks. We will keep everyone updated and let you know as soon as we find out. If you see any good sales on diapers let me know!!!!

Foxworthy on Wyoming

I received an email the other day and it was so funny and so true that I had to share some of it with you. It is Foxworthy on Wyoming. Here are just a few of the funny things that was said:



If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 18 inches of ice and sitting there all day hoping that the food will swim by, you might live in Wyo.

If your local Dairy Queen is closed from November through March, you might live in Wyo.

If you have worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you might live in Wyo.

If your town has an equal number of bars and churches, you might live in Wyo.

If your dad's suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his forehead, you might live in Wyo.

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRUE WYOMINGITE WHEN:


"Vacation" means going east or west on I-80 for the weekend.


You measure distance in hours.


You often switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day and back again.


You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard, without flinching.


You know several people who have hit a deer more than once

You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked.

You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and road construction.

You actually understand these jokes, and you forward them to all your friends....Sad....but true!!!




I read this last part and started laughing because I understand all of these jokes and I did forward this to all of my friends because this is true life in Wyoming. I hope that you all get a good laugh from this and think of your friend who lives in Wyoming!!!!
