Evanston Trip

We are home now from our trip to visit our families. We had a great time, but like always it is great to get back home!
I am going to have to spread our trip over a couple blogs...cause I took ALOT of pictures...shocked, I know....
This first post is from some of the fun stuff we did while in Evanston, and like always, I have a hard time choosing through the picts, so I just put all the ones I liked! Hope you like them too.
This is Elsie with her Bumpa...it was so cute to see these two. When Grandpa was in the room, Elsie made sure he was looking at her...and if he wasn't she would do anything to get his attention. And then he would look at her and give the biggest smile. They definitely have a sweet Little friendship. Grandpa kept asking if Grandma was jealous of his new girlfriend....so cute!
Girls with their cousins...on Grandpas feed...
More fun with cousins...watching the Pelicans down at the river on Brent's parents property...Pelicans in Wyoming...who'd a thought???
A ride on the mule
One of Grandpas new baby goats...aren't they cute!!!
The girlies with their Grandma Ene...they had so much fun with her...she has a tendency to spoil them!!!
4-wheeling with Grandpa
They think Grandpa is pretty great!
I wanted to post this picture cause the girls think it is so cool that Daddy was 'the little boy who lived down the lane' His parents live at the end of this lane...where I am standing...and the girls love to recite that poem and then say...that's Dad...the little boy who lived down the lane...

Then they got to help Uncle Dave, Aunt Cindy and Andy mow Grandmas lawn...with a riding mower...they thought that was great!

At full speed...(blades off, of course)
Elsie is not so sure...but she trusts Dad anyway. Don't you love that lip???
Looking and me and letting me know that 'it's not so bad!'
Really concentrating now...
Cassi's turn
And then all by herself...don't worry....slowest speed and blades off...
Look at that face!!!
Now Madi by herself...
All the girls after the yard work is all done!
Then it rained...a lot more...and this is Brent holding Elsie out the window and enjoying the rain. She thought it was pretty cool.

Looks like so much fun! The girls sure seem to have a ton of fun! They will be good little drivers when the time comes...with all the practice helping with the lawn!

How fun! Elsie is so stinkin' cute!!! I love her hair in the piggies like that. Did you cut bangs for her? What a great trip! I am excited to see more pictures!

It does look like a lot of fun to visit there. There is just something about the "farm" atmosphere that is so great.
