Some where in the middle of No where!

Drive home from New Mexico

Here are the rest of the "driving" pictures. It is amazing to me at how there is just nothing for the longest time. But then if you actually pay attention to the nothingness, it is extremely beautiful! I can't even fathom what it would have been like to cross this windy, hot, barren land on horse back!! It took all day in the car.
Here at home, we have plain old brown dirt. I didn't know that it came in different colors!

Sleep (or not) over

Kristina is having a sleep over tonight. So of course, there is not much sleeping going on! The girls; Trista, Sarah, Mikayla, and Kristina, decided that they were ravenous at 1 am! So......I am blogging while they are eating, watching a movie, and giggling up a storm!! I don't know how Don and Devin are sleeping!

Water Park Fun!

It is tradition that Grandpa take the kids to the water park every time we go to visit. They had never been to this park before, and had a blast. The slides were as big a hit to the kids, as the shade umbrellas and lounge chairs were to Grandpa!!! I don't see how he can stand to wear jeans in 100 degree weather!

Hole in the Rock

That's one BIG lizard!! We found him 'climbing' around in the middle of nowhere on our drive home from New Mexico. I am pretty sure that we were in Utah, this was at the Hole in the Rock. We didn't go inside this trip, so no pics of the house inside of the mountain. It is really neat though. A definite tourist trap, but a great place to look around!
If you look right above the rock in the black and white with a bit of color in the middle picture, you will see the big lizards live 'little' brother.
