WY Visitors

Sheridan, Torrie and their kids stayed with us for a couple of nights this weekend. Although it wasn't a planned trip for them we were certainly glad to see them! We LOVE having them stay with us. We look forward to the next time we see them and can have more fun!
I snapped a couple of pictures before I left for church - (Cole, Ty and Madeline) They are such CUTE kids! We sure love them!
Gracie and Madeline
We also attended a Jesse Nicholas Reunion - This is Gramps and Grams enjoying the stories being told!
Grant and Wanda came from WY for the Reunion also - they stayed with us Saturday night and we sure enjoyed visiting. (I think Grant and Mark got all the political issues solved!)
Come again soon everyone!

Baby Animal Days w/ Lucas and Kody

We took Lucas and Kody to "Baby Animal Days" at the Western Heritage Park. It was SO FUN! The boys had a ball petting and holding the baby animals. First stop, the oxen - Kody wasn't too sure about getting too close to these critters!

Petting the little horse -
They loved holding the little bunnies - Lucas' bunny didn't even flinch!

Waiting their turn to hold the baby ducks - Lucas dropped it twice! (oops!) He did much better holding the baby chick.

Petting the little tiny goats - so very cute!
We went on a wagon ride too. My batteries kept dying so I didn't get very many pictures.
It's definitely a fun place to take kids but very crowded!
