90/365: A Little Yard Work



Today was such a beautiful day outside.  
Baby blue skies & big fluffly white clouds.

Audrey & Oliver turned out to be quite the little helpers.

Today would have been my Grandma's Birthday.  
How I wish she could have met them... 
she would have loved having them help her in her garden.

86/365: A Bridal Shower for Tiffany


My cousin Tiffany, the cute gal in the middle, is getting married next month {in Hawaii of all places!}  Today we gathered as a family to throw her a "Something Borrowed, Something Blue" Bridal Shower.    It was a wonderful afternoon that included good food & many laughs.

85/365: Musical Makeup


One of Audrey's favorite things to do with my Mom is put on makeup.
This cute little powder puff comes from a musical box.
You twist the knob.  It plays a little tune.
Audrey loves it.

84/365: One L-O-N-G Driving Day

Not wanting to repeat what happened yesterday, 
we decided to head up Hwy 50 & go around to get to Reno.  
Which is a good thing, since they were planning on closing down I-80 until Noon.  
We left at 6 AM


Heading up Hwy 50 at 6:15 AM


9 hours later, at 3:12 PM.  Still in Nevada.


My kids love these tunnels.  
We honk all the way through and scream like crazy people.  
It's fun.

We finally made it to Salt Lake.  Just a little after 9 PM.  

Yeah, it was a long day.

83/365: Our First Attempt


This is what we *tried* to drive through this afternoon, heading up I-80 on our way to Salt Lake City.  Needless to say, they shut down the canyon.  After waiting for 2 & a half hours in Colfax, we decided to headback home & try again in the morning.

Audrey's favorite stuffed animal is a fluffy little doggy.  Her hame is Mel.  
Often when Audrey sleeps, this is what I find.

79/365: His Favorite


Two of Oliver's favorties: Buzz & our new iPad.  
For a little guy, it is amazing to see how quickly he has learned his way around the iPad.  He is almost as quick as I am!
