Day 1

The first night we were in Bountiful we spent at Dallas and Jessicas house. Maycie was so excited to hold baby Porter. She wanted to take him everywhere. 

This is Maycie washing and drying B's hair. 

And Haylee styled Uncle Dallas' hair!

I don't know why I didn't get any pictures of Camden but he was there, I promise! 

Mikes Chinese food

My parents have 2 exchange students living with them this school year. 

Mike and Annette. 

Mike is from China.

 Annette is from Norway. 

I think. 

I can't ever remember. 

Anyway, here is some food Mike bought at the Chinese market. Read the English translations. 

Vegetarian meat??

Fried Gluten! 

Driving home

This is a picture I took while driving back to North Dakota. 

I really like it!

Moving day

Right after getting home from Utah we packed up our apartment and moved into our new home! 

When Bret took Laramie to the airport at 7am we didn't have a single thing packed. By 7 that night we were moved into our house and completely exhausted! 

We had 4 guys from Brets work helping us move. We couldn't have done it without them!

The barbie house was one of the first things to make it to the new house. The girls went straight downstairs and played for hours! 

After playing all day, Haylee needed a nap. This is our living room/kitchen/dining room. 

This is the girls room. 

This is the guest room. Bret and I slept in the guest room for the first few nights because our new bed hadn't been delivered yet. It's here now but I don't have any pictures of our room. 

So there you have it. A little taste of our new home. We're still shuffling things around a bit but for the most part everything is in its place. 

P.s. I can't wait to get patio furniture!!

Silly Maycie

This is the process we go through to get a cute picture...

Kids Day Out

Williston has an annual FREE fair for kids. It's called Kids Day Out and it's AWESOME! This year there were about 100 different booths/tables the kids could visit and do activities. There were 8 bouncy houses. Scooby-Doo was even there!  Everything but lunch was free... Lunch was a hot dog, chips and soda for only $1! Awesome, right?! I love how family oriented this town is. I've never lived in a place like this before. There is always something going on for kids.

The girls had their picture taken with Scooby-Doo for the news paper! 

B.A.C.A. (Bikers Against Child Abuse) was there giving out tattoos and pencils. 

They played pin-the-patch-on-the-biker and posed on the bikes for pictures. 

Next stop was the firefighters. Maycie just walked around to all the firefighters there and told them her dad was a firefighter but she wouldn't try using the fire hose. Haylee was more than excited to try! 

There was a cow milking contest...with a fake cow :)

There were police officers there, sheriff's trucks and garbage trucks that kids could climb in. Gymnastics stations where they could play. Face painting booths, fishing booths, photo booths. Pretty much everything a kid could ask for. It was awesome! 

P.S. When we got home we watched a thunderstorm roll in, thanks to our new big windows!

What season is it??
