Salt Lake City is actually on the way to Scottsbluff from our house, and since Cheryl wanted to join us on our road trip, it worked out perfectly for us to stop there to pick her up. Except for Alan getting motion sickness the first day, things went well as far as traveling went. The weather was very agreeable.
Once we got to Scottsbluff, we were able to finally have some fun. One fun thing we did was take a walk along the North Platte river. It was such a pleasant day and the walk was very enjoyable.
Olivia found this stick that she was very proud of and wanted her picture taken with it.
Another fun thing we did was shoot Eric's crossbow. That thing is very powerful. Eric set up a target in his back yard and let us have at it. Yes, the children were inside so it was safe.
We also went shopping for clothing to wear for our upcoming family photo. Olivia was a crack-up. She entertained us by trying on Cheryl's sun glasses and ear muffs in Target
Oh, and yes, we ate a wonderful, delicious, Thanksgiving meal prepared mostly by Nicole. The Bagley's (friends of Eric & Nicole) were invited as well and we had a great time. I stole this picture from Nicole. I hope she will forgive me.
It took two more days to drive home so we were very tired of being in the car, but all in all, it was a great trip, especially since we got to spend so much time with Eric's family. Thanks for letting us share Thanksgiving with you!!!
