El Paso

These are all out of order and I don't care. On Easter we left and drove to Moab, we being my mom, sisters Emily and Katy and my kids and Jack. The next morning we got up and left Moab and headed towards El Paso. It was a long drive but we finally made it to my brother Jared's house at about 7 that night. We enjoyed a whole week with them and we were all sad when we had to leave, hopefully someday we will all live closer! The kids had so much fun together and enjoyed each other! Tuesday we went and met my brother for lunch with his boss, she wanted to meet us all. We then went to a mall and then drove home, driving on the freeway there is like nothing I have ever experienced! It is insane and I thought after driving in Memphis I was fine but driving there on the freeways is crazy and I see why my sister in law never goes to meet up with my brother for lunch! Wednesday we spent the day at a farm, another post about that. Thursday was our craft day. Celyn cut out wood projects for us to paint and mod podge while we were there so we spent all day Thursday doing those. Friday we went to the Outlets near their house. It was also about 95 degrees that day and it was hot but it was nice! We then went and got some Mexican food for dinner that night and it was really good! Saturday we watched the first session of conference and then we loaded my van and we were on our way home! It was a good drive home and we were happy to see our husbands again!

 

Leaving Moab

Grandma spoiled all the kids and paid for them to ride in the cool toys! They loved them and it was hard to get them down!

I shared a king size bed with Easton and he still managed to roll all the way to the other side and off the edge!

 

This was Easton still awake at midnight after he had been laying there for 3 hrs!

Monday was Emily's birthday and Celyn had orange chicken and had made a cake for her when we got there, and Blue Bell ice cream! They really need to sell that ice cream in Utah!

Watching a show!

My van hit 55,555 while in the middle of the crazy freeway!

One afternoon we spent at my sister in law's parents house while she cut our wood for our projects! Jack loved their little dog! He wanted to hold it himself! My kids are no where to be seen because they are terrified, someday hopefully we will get over that!

 Katy had all the kids on her bed and laughing one night! They all love her to pieces!

 Nothing better than Christmas Jammies in April!

 One afternoon the kids played in the water table!

 Easton watering their plants!

 He was done after a few minutes!

 These two were up to no good and were taking cups of water and dumping them on the girls, it is funny how teasing girls comes so naturally and at such a young age!

 Something happened I think he was dumping water in the sand box and so he got in trouble and wasn't happy!

 The first night! They were so excited to have a sleepover!

This was as we drove off and left the 4 husbands in the dust! They all looked a little rejected and like what do we do now!
