Olivia lost her first tooth!

Today after church Olivia's tooth was extra wiggly. At bedtime I told her I would wipe off the blood and just yanked it out. She was shocked but quickly became very excited.  She couldn't wait to use her tooth fairly pillow!

Thanksgiving 2018: Casper, WY

We met up with Ryan, Lindsay, Jace and Kade in Casper, WY.  We stayed at the C'mon Inn and really enjoyed the hotel.  We were in rooms 121 and 123 (I want to remember the room numbers for next time we go) which gave us our own little sitting area outside our rooms where we could sit in the evenings and chat after the kids went to bed.  We were also right next to the pool.  

In the hotel there was a fish pond.  The kids loved going to check on the fish throughout the day and at 7 a.m. they would go to the front desk and get some food to feed them.

Wednesday afternoon:  We made it!  Kids check out the fish and then head right to the room to get...

swimsuits on and jump in the pool.

After swimming we went to FireRock Steakhouse for supper.

Thursday: Thanksgiving morning: Up with the sun and ready for breakfast and feeding fish.

After food and fish it was time for the first swimming session of the day.  One of Jace's friends, Briston, also happened to be staying at our hotel too.  The boys played football in the pool.

Kade and Via played with Briston's sister.

A little  screen time before heading out for lunch.

The Hangar: This is were we went for our Thanksgiving meal. 

The entrance

All of us at the table.  I have no idea how Denny was cut out of the picture because he was the one pushing the button to snap the photo.

There he is!

Two big bounce houses for the kids to play on while we ate.  It worked out great!  They got to eat and play and we were able to slowing enjoy our meal.

A little bit of pie with whip cream.

Yummy!

After Turkey and Pie it was off to the movies to watch The Grinch.

Then another round of swimming.  The littles didn't last as long in the pool as the bigs.

Friday:  Kids got up and ate breakfast, fed fish, swam for a few hours.  Then it was time for round two of breakfast before we all headed home.  It is always so sad to say goodbye, but we are all so thankful for our time together over the holiday!
