WE'RE BACK!!
We have been home since Monday evening and we are trying to get back into life. We had so much fun on our trip everywhere we went and have many many pictures to share. So I am going to start off with the first part of our trip and update each day.
Our first stop was in Wyoming with Sheridan's family. Sheridan's sister Jessica and her husband Bryan and their 4 children came to see us while we were there so the kids were entertained a lot. From riding horses, the tire swing, playing with grandma's toys, swimming, BBQing, celebrating 2 B-Days (Uncle Jake and Aunt Siarra's), let's just say we kept busy. Oh, and the biggest thing of all Sheridan finally received his infamous custom made saddle. I will go into that later. :)
Wanda my mother-in-law was so great to let 12 extra people into her home in the middle of re-construction of their home that was flooded in a freak rain storm last summer. Their home looks so great, it was a blessing in disguise. Now she has the kitchen that's she's always wanted!! :) It looks great Wanda, can't wait to see the finished product.
So the following flood of pictures is from Wyoming.
This is Ty with his cute little cousin Paisley.
Little Paisley again, I couldn't resist this shot.
Uncle Jake's B-Day all the kids wanted to help him blow out his candles.
Cole eating Twitchell's home made ice cream. Mmmmm goood!!
I love this picture of Ty peeking out of his hood with Great Grandpa Twitchell in the background.
Just hanging out with the cousins.
We went to "Sinks Canyon" right by Lander. It is where the Popo Agie River "sinks" (goes underground) for 1/4 to 1/2 mile then comes back out. It was flowing very high this year.
There is a story behind this photo. I'll try and keep it short. We Sheridan, I, Maddie & Cole went out with Grandpa Nicholas and Uncle Jake to help them set up their gated pipe for irrigating and Sheridan and I had a BAD case of allergies, the next photo will show how bad my poor husband.
It took a couple days for his and my eyes to get back to normal.

Cole loves his cousin Conner.
Grandma Nicholas showing the kids how to plant flowers.
Here is the infamous saddle, for those of you that don't know... Sheridan has wanted a custom made saddle from Steve Mecum for a long time. I put his name on the waiting list 2 1/2 yrs ago and he got it while we were in Wyoming so he was able to use it for a couple days. Let's just say he was in heaven!! (and his Christmas, Birthday, Father's Day, Valentine's Day etc... will is now taken care of for the next 20 years!! lol)
MY FAVORITE PHOTO'S
(I have more that I took up in St. Lawrence Basin, where the boys pushed the cows to, but I took them with Jessica's camera because my battery died.)
Love the clouds.
Husband's boots, his dad made these spurs for his mom.
Gracie looks dang good in a hat.

Cole at their favorite park.
Cute Baby Ty very content outside.
Well that's it for now. Of course I have a ton more pictures but didn't want to bore you all so I will continue in the next couple days with more, but from our next stop. IDAHO!!
To be continued.....
