Jackson Hole

Our first day in Wyoming we were missing Jimmy, Andy & Jackie.  Tom and I flew in that morning to meet the rest of the gang.  We spent a few minutes looking around the visitor center and looking at all the antler archers before heading out to  Teton Village and the Grand  Tetons.  
 

First Class

The kids  flew up with Grammylu, Papa, Daniel and Megan to Jackson Hole the night before Tom and I.  They were thrilled.  Since Papa is a two million miler with United he and Grammylu were upgraded to first class.  Grammylu was nice enough to give her seat up so that the kids could ride up front.  They split the trip each spending half the time with Papa up front.  They loved it!
  

Wyoming Family Vacation


Our family vacation this year was in Wyoming.  We had an AMAZING time seeing Yellowstone, Grand  Tetons, Jackson Hole, white water rafting, horse back riding and so much more.  Jimmy was stuck in Peru and not able to make it until Tuesday but made up for lost time once he arrived.  As always we loved seeing everyone!  THANKS Mama and Daddy for another great family vacation!

Ferrari World

Since Tom stayed behind in Saudi for an extra few weeks he needed to find something to do.  Lucky for him our friends Nicoli and Mark were there to keep him company.  They had a lot of dinners together, moved some grass and took a road trip to Abu Dubai, U.A.E.  The grass went from our neighbors Dave and Dottie who retired and moved back to TX to our yard.  The road trip to Abu Duabi was over a weekend and included a trip to Ferrari World.  They rode the fastest roller coaster in the world which Tom said was the most intense coaster he has ever done!  Overall while he missed us he had a nice time by himself!

Tom & Fireworks!

Tom arrived from Saudi Arabia on the 5th.  We had saved some fireworks for him since he loves them so much.  We did fireworks with the twins, Jackie, Andy, Daniel, Megan, and Grammylu.  It was a lot of fun!  The kids were super excited to have Daddy back with us!
  

4th of July Fireworks

We did fireworks with Grammylu, Papa, Daniel and Megan.  Then following fireworks we sat on the roof and watched the ones from Bush Library.  It was a perfect way to celebrate the 4th of July!
