Jiggity Jig

We're home!  And it feels so good.  I do miss my familia and homies back in the west and it was super awesome to see everyone but there is something so great about coming home.  Last night I loaded all of the 300+ pics I took from the past 3 weeks I've been gone so get ready for a load.
So we started off the fun in Cheyenne, Wyoming with my brother Phil & his fam.  They treated us so good.  It was so fun to see Lucy interact with her cousins that she hadn't seen in a year.  Here are a bunch of pics from the week...

Nate took Lucy for a ride in his awesome truck

And here she is riding in the back with Alyssa and Zach in front

And this is their beautiful house.  They did the whole med school thing and now my brother is finally all finished and is a full blown Anesthesiologist.  I just look at it and think, someday this will be us.  Someday we will earn money rather than live on the borrowed stuff.  Someday we will get to repay everyone who has helped us out and who continues to help us out. (We really appreciate it soo much!)

My brother Phil works with a guy that owns his own little ranch with horses and a pot belly pig.  McKell was so excited she got to ride one of the horses all by herself.

Lucy was just as excited about chasing around this pig.  She kept snorting at it hoping it would snort back.  The best part was when all the kids chased it around the yard.  You wouldn't guess it by the looks of it but that thing was fast!

Poor Miss Luce got sick one day and threw up a bunch of times (I felt so bad!)

So we took it easy for 2 days and just lounged.

We went to a fun children's park with lots of fun things to explore and do.

Luce loved playing in the pond

Her, Zach, and Nate all in a row

After we went to a nearby lake and rented some paddle boats.

Phil, Nate, Zach and Alyssa were on one.  Me, Nicole, Lucy, and Mckell were on the other.

Lucy and Zach were being silly.  They were taking rocks from one side of the patio and throwing them onto the other side.  This entertained them for a good 20 minutes.  Zach is such a character.

Other fun things we did that I didn't get pictures of: had a women's world cup party and watched them totally choke in the end (booo!), went to a park, played with the dog, ate lots of good food, visited the awesome library, and played around the house.  Nothing too crazy, it was perfect.  Thanks P & N for showing me that Cheyenne isn't such a hick town like I thought.  You guys are awesome.

Our next destination was the western part of Wyoming - Star Valley.  Post coming soon!
