I think we're going to move................................Gillette here they come!

Casie McNeely used to live in Gillette and lives in WA state now.  She brought her tiny son Connor down to see us. What a cutie!!  I am so thankful for FaceBook.  It lets us stay in touch with so many folks.  We can watch Connor grow from afar. 
Ethan is loading up stuff and moving it here and moving it there.  Travis and Whitney made the decision that Casper wasn't good for them.  So they are moving to Gillette and will stay with Kaycee until they can find a place and Travis can get a job.  We are so proud of him for taking this stand and putting HIS little family first. 
At the end of a hard morning of play it is time for a nap on Grams' bed.
BUT - we can't take the puppies with us.  Here Nessie is getting ready to leave to go live with a friend and her daughter.  Good.  She's not going to strangers and we can see her from time to time.  :) Bye Nessie.

Back with the family and meeting in Longmont

We are at Erick and Vanessa's in Severance Colorado.  Hayden sure has grown and is such a happy little girl.  Erick dotes on her and is the main care taker when he is home.  She adores him.  They are working on getting a home of their own up in the mountains at the 8500' level.  (I'm thinking winter all the time.  :)  )

They took us up to the house.  It is a great little starter house and they'll have a good time up here.  They are young.  :)  Not too sure about bringing the bus up this high - it might not be such a hot idea.  We'll have to see.
The kids came down last weekend (eye doc apts) and we kept Ethan.  As we didn't get to stop on the way through the three of us drove down to Colorado Springs to see Lucky.  We had lunch at Cracker Barrel.  Nice visit.


The bathroom bath
At some point down the road, Ethan really isn't going to be happy about these pictures.  But now however was okay.  He "got" to take a bath in the sinks.  :)
The kitchen bath.  :)

Emile and Dianne have friends in Longmont and are visiting there.  Dave and Debbie ditto.  SO what should we do?   Go to Longmont for dinner and laughs.

After dinner they took us to the house they built.  It is beautiful.  The "coy" pond is still thriving.  (It better be  Dave said. )  The folks that bought it were pleased to see Dave and Debbie and find out about our lifestyle.

Hey Grams!! Look at me.
So Dad took Ethan and went to sit on the bench also.  Then they got to feed the fish.  :)
Such an open and incredible home.













Thanks for allowing us to tour your house.  Oh - Look at the sunset over the Rockies!!
