Hello all! It has been awhile. We have gone non-stop for the last 3 days with hardly any time to stop and blog. We hit Yellowstone running on Sunday and Monday. We then traveled to Sheridan Wyoming on Monday night. THAT was a very stressful drive through the mountains. We avoided many, many deere, and in Wyoming they have open ranges so you are driving along, round a corner, and there is a HUGE herd of cows in the road that you have to creep through. It was amazing but a very stressful drive, the mileage was about 90 miles but going through the mountains at 25 mph hair pin curves, avoiding deere, and cows, it took us about 4 hours. We stopped for the night last night, got into our hotel around 10:30. We were very thankful to have gotten thru the Big Horn Mountains! At one point Haley was talking non-stop,(big surpise), and Jeff said, "Haley, could you stop talking, this drive is very stressful and kind of scary." She said, "Well, let's just pray about this!!!" And she went into a cute little 4 year old prayer for protection. I had to think that God was smiling down on our van as she was praying, and although I was praying all along, he gave us extra angels through those mountains because of her child-like faith!
We were going to come all the way home today (Tues.) but because we made such terrible time yesterday we decided we would never get from Sheridan, Wyoming to home in one day. We are right now in Mitchell, S.D. We will return home tomorrow afternoon and we are ready to get there. The girls have a list of all the home cooked meals I am to make for them. Mikayla, who could eat out about every single meal, said, "we aren't eating out for a year!!" I am just including a few pictures tonight but will give more day to day details and pictures tomorrow night at home. Blogger is doing something weird and these aren't necessarily the pics that I had chosen but for some reason it chose these and since it is 11 p.m. I am not going to try and fix it. Check back in tomorrow night!
