We left Rexburg on April 5th, a wintry/blizzardy day and drove to Cokeville. A 3 hour drive. And Sedona did this...
for only 15 minutes. I knew we were in for a LONG trip!
We stopped in Cokeville for the weekend and came into my parents' house to find Tessa making a birthday cake for Ol' Blue...her bike. Yes, I know, it's kinda strange. But...it's Tessa! So, I LOVED it!! Austin was so sweet and helped her decorate her cake and rig up Ol' Blue to blow it's own candles out (for video footage of that epic event, refer to my Facebook page).
Saturday morning was gorgeous and Big Hill was calling our names! So, Mom and I bundled up (after it finally got to 30 F around 10:00am) and hit the pavement. It was so fun and I LOVE this pic of my Mom. She is so amazing!!
(this is the view of the east side of Big Hill)
(this is my home-town. All of it. I LOVE it!)
Saturday afternoon, we went on a walk down to Grandy's and looked at the baby sheep and the baby goat. Sedona loved it! That is, until the momma sheep got a little too close. Thank goodness Grannie had a hold of her or she would have cried. She did look pretty nervous when it poked its head out of the spaces in the trailer!
On that same walk, we made our way down to my Grandma Teichert's house. She just turned 93 years old and is busy hand-quilting in her living room. She is so amazing! I LOVE this picture. They're just looking at each other!
Uncle Tyson came to Cokeville for the weekend, too. He had to go bag to the rig on Sunday evening and we are so glad we got to see him before we left! They are so cute!
We hunted Easter eggs at Aunt Vonda's house on a GORGEOUS Easter Day!!
And what Easter would be complete without chocolate easter egg lipstick?! I love you, Tessa!!
We hit the road early Monday morning for a LONG drive. We drove for 10 hours and Sedona only slept for 1!!! ARGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We finally made it to the Hayden's house and Sedona had a great time with her friends Drew and Ty.
Tuesday brought more of this:
....and only 1 hour of this....again.
Needless to say, we didn't make it to OKC on Tuesday. We stayed in Amarillo Tuesday night and left Wednesday morning. We finally arrived in OKC around 2pm on Wednesday. What a LOOOONNNNGGGG drive! I am so happy to finally be here and we are loving it! I am, however, out of time to update you on our new 'digs' as Sedona is letting me know she is awake now. 2 posts in one nap...not too bad!!
