Okay, I did not get a whole lot better at taking more pictures since my last post, but I did document most of the crazy wonderful things we have been up to.
We sure capitalized on our first Frontier Days with the parade, Indian Village, Pancake Breakfast and the Rodeo. Dave took the older girls to the rodeo and they had to hide in the bathroom during a massive hail storm, but they finished the show and loved to tell me all about it when they got home!
And then there was another hail storm. This one broke 3 windows, totaled Dave's truck and both our trailers. It has been a little rough that we lost thousands of dollars worth of assets in a half hour, but we are grateful that everyone is okay and truly appreciated the help we received from friends and neighbors.
After the hail, we boarded up our windows and carried on with life. Our friends, the Roses, came to visit us and our ghetto accommodations didn't even matter since we spent most of our time visiting, playing, and touring our favorite Cheyenne destinations.
As the Roses were taking off, grandma and grandpa walked in the door for their visit! The 4:4 ratio was amazing for everyone; I especially enjoyed watching the girls basque in the individual attention. There were lots of board games, a wonderful late night game of catch with Indie, a trip to the County Fair, and dinner at a restaurant where everyone stuffed their faces with fried ice cream. What a great week of visitors!
We finished out the week with a trip to Water World with the Redds and Bades! We got a sitter for Indie and spent the day doing whatever the big girls wanted to do. Milan and Cora hung with the daredevil dads, while Eden and I spent most of our time together. We enjoyed lots of thrills while managing to avoid the spinny rides to it was the perfect companionship. After a full day of waiting in lines, packing tubes up hills, and reapplying sunscreen, we shut the park down with happy smiles.
