A big reason for our trip was a jaunt over to Lander, WY to go and see my brother Adam's twin boys be blessed. We haven't ever been able to see their home in Lander and we were excited to see where they lived and visit their home. Lander is nestled near the Windriver Mountains and is such a beautiful place. I can really see why they enjoy it there. We were so happy to have time to visit them.
We spent Saturday evening at the Sinks. It's where the river disappears below the mountains and reappears further down. It was beautiful and the perfect location for dinner.
They had a little playground. Dylan was really sweet with Lily.Adam and Camille brought delicious sandwiches and salads.
Little Jimmer. My girls are obsessed with Carli's little guy.
Some of the crew.
The river was so clear and pretty. I guess the fish are just huge.
Geoff decided to go and find out. Bryan tried as well and they caught a few.
The cousins found a sweet little hide out. This picture would not be so blurry if they could just hold still for two seconds!
Julia saw this buffalo and made a goal then and there that she would climb it. She was real excited when she finally got to the top with Carli's assistance and then became really concerned on how she would get down. Bryan soon joined her and even lugged Audrey up there. I have definitely loosened up on my nervous motherhood as the kids have gotten older.
They have the greatest park right by Adam's house.
And here is the adorable family we were celebrating. those twins are just too cute. Adam gave such beautiful blessings and we were able to sit and enjoy delicious food on their front lawn. It was a great day and we were so glad to have made the trip. Poor Bryan had to head right home to Idaho after this which was a near eight hour drive. Luckily he got to drive through the Tetons and Jackson Hole so it made it a little bit better. It was certainly worth it. We are so glad to be close enough to finally make events like this. Living far away gives you a much greater appreciation.
Unfortunately we caught a bought of the stomach flu upon returning to my mom's house. Poor Audrey was so sad. Julia got to go and play with cousins while she laid in agony.
Lily wasn't feeling well either. It was a bummer way to end a trip but good thing the rest of the trip was so great.
