Scavenger Hunt

So last night for our FHE activity we went on a family drive around Kearney. The kids always whine about "going for a drive" because they are so "boring." Well to entertain them a bit, I came up with the idea of doing a scavenger hunt as we drove. They were to find a dog, cat, windmill, airplane, raccoon, green van, silver truck, police car, pond, roadkill....stuff like that. I told them if they found everything they would win a prize. Being the exceptionally nice mother that I am I of course wanted them to find everything. As it was getting time to head back home they only had one item left on their list. An airplane. I thought that after 45 minutes they would've seen at least one. But no. So, I specifically went out of the way to drive to the Kearney Airport. Guess what? THERE WAS NO AIRPLANE AT THE AIRPORT!!!! So I let them count the picture of the airplane on the airport sign.

Who would've thought. No plane at the airport!

Too Much Sun? Part II

Sorry, I wasn't able to post the pictures with the last blog. So read the previous blog.

Too Much Sun?

So yesterday the Husker football team had their Red and White game. Steven was able to go to the game with a friend from church. The kids and I also drove to Lincoln to enjoy some pregame festivities and then hang out with friends.

It was a beautiful, sunny day in Lincoln, NE. So sunny that my dear husband thought it would be best to turn his hat backwards to avoid getting a sunburn on his neck. (We obviously forgot about sunscreen.) However, he forgot about the front of his head.

Due to wearing a cap backwards, this is his new look. The funniest part about it, is that he was privileged enough to speak in sacrament meeting to day where EVERYONE got to see him.

Galen!!

Steve's awesome brother Galen said he wouldn't look at the blog unless there was a picture of him on it. So, here you go Galen. Come visit us again soon.
