4th of July in Wyoming

We spent the 4th of July weekend at the cabin in Wyoming.

One day, we decided to head to one of our favorite spots,

Cottonwood Lake.

Here's what we found ...

started out pretty innocent ...

Snow capped mountains in July

Road getting washed away by all the run-off

Tank cooling off in the road.

You can see how as we get farther up the mountain,

the more flooded the road gets.

Yep, this is the road ...

Tank and Molly lead the way

We finally make it to the lake and we all practice our

sharp-shooting.

Bar-T-5

While in Star Valley, WY for the annual Tolman reunion,

we went to the Bar-T-5, which includes an interactive dinner and program.

Here we are waiting for the wagon ride up the mountain.

Indians watching from the hills ...

Our cousin, Mekelle, was "proposed to" during the program.

Most of our family played some part in the program at some point or another.

Kids had a blast! Fun night.

Mamma Mia

I dragged Josh to see "Mamma Mia" with me.

He didn't comlain ... too much.

Thanks for going with me!

It's always a great excuse to get out together.

Another Year Older ...

My cute work friends decorated my nurses cart the day for my birthday.

And bought me lunch and a delicious cake!!!

I have the BEST friends EVER!!!

Pink Heals

I heard about the "Pink Heals" event from someone at work.

Sounded interesting...

They had a pink firetruck in honor of those fighting or who have fought breast cancer.

And since we knew someone (Grandma Bott)

who had battled cancer, they let us sign the truck!

(No matter what I do, this picture won't post right side up)

They had all sorts of things to see ..

Life Flight helicopters to see.

They took off while we were there.

Wow .. what a wind they create!

Face Paints

Kids loved it. And hopefully will someday appreciate what their Grandma went through while fighting for her life.

Love this kid ...

I can't believe Cullen is now an Elementary School graduate!!

On to Junior High!

How can I be old enough??
