Joe and I took the kids on a family vacation to Nebraska City in April! It was such a fun trip and miraculously the kids were sooo good! (How did we get so lucky?). Jadyn and McKay slept/played through most of our 4 ten hour travel days. We picked good places to stop and stretch our legs every few hours and it worked out really well. Joe and I are really starting to enjoy road trips together.
We planned our trip so that we could swing through Dallas TX and see our college friends, Carolyn and Mike, before stopping briefly in Tulsa OK to see Joe's cousins Grant and Maren. Then it was on to Nebraska City for four days where we experienced the novelty of rain (haha). Joe attended a conference for his career field there and the kids and I played at the library and watched movies in the hotel. Friday we got up super early and drove down to Oklahoma City to spend the weekend with Joe's Aunt, uncle, and numerous older married cousins. It was so fun getting to know more of Joe's family and being spoiled by Aunt Lucy. Jadyn loved playing with all the little cousins and cheering at their soccer game on Saturday. (she's stinking cute when she stands up and claps yelling "yeaaaa!!") We spent Saturday evening playing a really fun card came called "golf" with the adults and then got up super early Sunday morning to drive home. Deeply contemplating Easter of course. --speaking of, I love Easter! and not just because of all of the amazing candy. I love all of the reminders to think of our Savior, and what he has done for us. He lived, he died, and He lives again. And because of Him we can live too!!
