Summer Vacation - Wyoming and South Dakota



Ranchester, Wyoming - A Visit to Les & Hollis
*Jill had a great time doing photo shoots with Declan, McKensie, Taycee and Hattie
*We went swimming at the Sheridan Pool and had ice cream.
*The kids slept on the trampoline a few times.
*Hanna's favorite activity: smashing pennies on the railroad tracks.
*We went see Despicable Me 2 at the movie theater.
*Austin was a Padlock Ranch cowboy with Les.
*Nunn Olympics was held in their yard. Only one major bike race crash - that would be Jill.
*Some people brought a dog for us to see if we liked for us to have, but the first night the dog ran away. We never did find him.
*We doubled the church attendance at the Ranchester Branch on Sunday. Have you ever been to Relief Society that is held in the Bishop's Office and there were still empty seats?








Crazy Horse and Mt. Rushmore



 Crazy Horse is the start of a carving of a Native American on a horse. They have been working on it for decades, and it will probably take another 100 years to finish. But it is a cool story and fun to see.


Mt. Rushmore was very cool to see in person and it does make you proud to be an American.

Love Jill's pictures! Too bad about the dog. :( And for sure, America has so much to offer and it is one of the best places on earth!!
Looks like everyone is having a great summer!
Glad you came home!! :)
