Brandon lost a tooth


Brandon lost his first tooth in April. It was such an exciting event. The tooth fairy left him a dollar, a note and his tooth. The note said that he got to keep his tooth for his scrapbook. He asked how the tooth fairy new his name and that he had a scrapbook and I explained that she was tight with Santa and knows everything. He was very excited and said that he can whistle better now.

Trip home from Illinois











As you know we went to Illinois to pick up our Jeep and so we had a three day drive home. We stoped at a few places along the way. First stop was to drop Aunt Shell off at her house in Marshall, Missouri. Then we made our way to Liberty Jail. We spent that first night in an awful Motel 6 in St. Joseph Missouri. Day two took us thru Nebraska and we stopped in North Platte and learned about Buffalo Bill. I thought that we were stopping at his home, but it was just a trading post with tons of things to by and an area with historical facts and artifacts. The boys has a good time. We made our way thru Nebraska and into Wyoming where we stayed in Rock Springs for the night. Day three took us about 4 hours to home. It was nice to be home, but the laundry and unpacking were not much fun. Here are some pictures.

I am a slacker

I do not have a good excuse for being behind on my blogging. Just busy and it is not top priority. I do have some time tonight though and so I thought I would catch up. Actually it has been a couple days of Bob saying "are you going to blog?" that prompted me to get on the computer. There has been so much going on and so I will post photos in the order things happened. Hope you enjoy!
