This Is Us

  Monday was our last day. We had so much fun and didn’t want our little getaway to end. We woke up, had breakfast (cereal), got ready and got everything all packed up to leave.  We took pictures of the kids on the wood fence: Lydia made a girl and boy out of Playdoh: We saw a cute little animal making noise and watching us: Our trailer is old, but we’ve got some good use out of it. Like I said, I recovered the cushions and Nick put down new flooring. One of the other campsites had a dump for our gray and black “water”. So we went there so we didn’t have to drive the whole way home with it. We stopped in a little town in Wyoming to get gas and lunch. Then we headed home. Our drive home: If you are wanting a fun getaway, we recommend this one!

We went camping 🏕 with Nick’s parents and one nephew. We stayed by Flaming Gorge. We took our trailer and his parents rented a trailer. We stayed in Green Lake camp ground. I made a menu on Excel for our meals and desserts. It included what we were eating and everything we would need for that meal. That was so helpful! I suggest you doing it! The first day: We were almost ready to leave. Nick was filling up the tires and saw that they were bad. So we took the trailer to get new tires. While we waited we finished getting ready and making sure we had everything we needed. It took longer than they had said. So I dropped Nick off back at the tire place to see if they just forgot to call us. Nope, they were having problems and the guy working on it was on his phone a lot. He finally got done, and the manager said he couldn’t figure out how to get the hubcaps back on. He ended up denting two of them, but Nick didn’t notice until he got home. Anyway, we got over to Dieter and Colleen’s. Then...

The other day I got home and called Nick so he could come move his car so I could pull into the garage. Xander came out with him, and then Brichette. He backed out of the drive way and when I looked over I saw this. Xander had "backed" the car out, with the help of Nick. He was so excited and so happy that Daddy let him "drive". Then he pulled it back in the driveway and I caught this big grin on his face. Brichette was a little upset because she didn't get to "drive" the car, but Nick told her that she could next time. We got this car from our doctor (he just gave it to us... he is so nice) at hit has the automatic seat belts... so when you close the door it "closes" against you and when you open the door it "opens" back up so you can get out. Well Brichette couldn't get the door open and so she was a little stuck. See the picture: You could hear her yell: "Help I'm stuck. The car won't let me out." I couldn...
