Spring Break 2015

Last week we went to Denver because Ross was on Spring Break. It was nice to get out of Laramie. We were disappointed Madison was still recovering from a nasty cold that hit a few days before we took off. My mom and stepdad are getting ready to sell their house and go on a mission. Ross said that he would help them do some projects that needed to be done before the house went onto the market. I think that they were pretty successful. These are some random highlights from our past few weeks. 

 I was so disappointed that Madison was sick because I was ready to go to Las Vegas to watch the Wyoming basketball team play in the Mountain West Championship. If she wasn't sick we would have been there no doubt about it. I sent this picture to Diana while she was in Washington D.C. Ross and I have loved watching them play this season and we were so glad that they made it to the NCAA tournament. 

 Ross caught 3 gardener snakes while we were in Colorado. The first one he cracked like a whip and then he made me kill the other two. I wasn't able to get the second one so he did. But I successfully  killed the third one. 

 Madison liked to play with Josie a lot. She loved Josie's shoes and kept trying to take them off her feet. Madison looked pretty funny walking around in my mom's red hat. All she needed was a purple shirt just like her great-grandma.

 Rachel and Madison loved playing together.

 Ross and I in our St. Patrick's day attire. Ross was so glad to wear his sweater vest again. 

 We knew Madison was really sick when she would only wear pajamas. She did that for about four days. It was sad and very unlike her.

 Ross' Aunt and Uncle sent Madison a fun Easter package. She was really excited about these bunny sunglasses. It really was the perfect gift for Madison. She loves sunglasses. 

Before we left and Madison got sick, we were able to play outside because it was so warm outside. Madison loved doing that. It was nice to be outside again. She really enjoyed going down the slide. 

I also forgot to mention that a few weeks ago I entered a logo design for downtown Laramie. They were celebrating 10 years and wanted people to create a new logo for them. The winner would receive $200 in Downtown gift cards. I decided to resurrect my old Macbook and create a logo. I was really hoping to win, but I received an honorable mention so that was cool. (The logo in the picture isn't mine.) I was really glad to design again. I hope I can find more opportunities to do other projects like this soon!
