Spring Break

We made it to Lovell for Spring Break. We weren't planning on leaving until today, but the computer labs got closed so Charlie didn't have to work on Saturday. We figured why not leave early? The trip went fairly well. In Casper we needed to get gas, and one place had a deal that would give you ten cents off a gallon if you bought a car wash ticket. Our car was in need of a wash anyway, so we did it. It was my first time through an automatic car wash. Charlie was making fun of me because I said the soap smelled really good, and then I would look back and start marvelling at how clean our car was. I don't think we have washed it since we bought it about a year ago.

All my siblings except Brian were able to come this weekend. David will be coming home from his mission on Wednesday. It would be nice if Brian could have come too, but the college he goes to is weird and has finals this week. I'm not used to this much noise. Sam is having a ton of fun playing with his cousins. He's not really around other kids that much, so he really enjoys the time that he is around them. We went to my Grandma Allred's house tonight, and Topher decided that I was a pack horse. He started jumping on my back, and boy does he have a grip. It took quite a bit of work every time I tried to get him off. Topher and Ethan were running around the house, and I guess Sam felt left out because he was the only one that could run. So I grabbed his arms so he could run after him. His little legs would be moving so fast just like he was running. I would tackle Topher and then Sam would tackled him too. But every time Topher got back up to run, Sam would look at me and give me those puppydog eyes because he wanted to keep running. I just had to quit after about 40 minutes because I don't have the energy of those little guys. It's been great being home, and it will be awesome seeing David. I'm sure I'll have another update soon with pictures at the airport and whatnot.
