The two peas found they had four weeks of unplanned summer and decided to fill it with a long and much needed vacation. No flying. Road trip! Since this is their last summer off from school, and whatever else have you, they decided to take to the open road and see family.
The first leg of this vacation consisted of a stop at an older sister's house and then onward and upward into Yellowstone. So far the two peas have enjoyed laughter, hugs from little nephews, nature's antics, games, stories, and the final chapter of Harry Potter on film! (The film was deeply satisfying to the wife since she was itching to know what happens in the end, and to the hubby since the wife finally squelched the flow of relentless questions. Fabulous.)
Both peas are sad to see the end of this half of the trip, but grateful for the experience and tons of pictures to help them remember it. Here are a few highlights:
 |
| Texas Dice with all of the cousins. |
 |
| Motorcycle Ride in the Forest |
 |
| Beautiful Nature |
 |
| The Hubby Slaloming |
 |
| The wife finally made it up onto a wake board. First time! |

| In Yellowstone Park |
Lately the wife has been feeling crafty, creative. She's decided it's high time to cook certain types of foods until she gets them just right, like biscuits, and time to finish sewing projects so they're not taking up space in the closets. Who knew biscuits would be so hard to get right, to make them raise and flake perfectly. But when you do get them to bake the way you want, my goodness how they taste good.
