Little Break

I guess it's time for an update of some sort! Kurt just recently had about a week & a half break after 3 LOOONNNGGG weeks of finals, but thank goodness they are over and his 1st year is officially out of the way! I couldn't be more proud of him for all the hard work he put into this past year. He even made the Dean's List for both semesters! Whoo hoo!! So over the break we just relaxed and spent some much needed time together as a family. I had Kurt help me paint some furniture for Kylan's room which I will post pictures of when/IF we get into a house the end of the summer. We painted a dresser, headboard, and bookcase all black. I'm excited to put together a new room for her. Wednesday we made a trip down to Wheeling, West Virginia and went to Cabelas. Kurt has been having withdrawals from guns, hunting, fishing and all that so we drove down (a little over 2 hours) and spent a couple hours just checking things out. I must say the piece of rasberry pretzel cheesecake fudge I got made it all worth it! Kylan loved seeing all the animals, especially the elephant. Of course I didn't get any pictures because the batteries died on the camera; just my luck, sorry! The drive was really pretty; lots & lots of tree covered hills!
One day we went to the Memphis Kiddie Park. Kylan loved it this time, last Fall she was a little unsure about it. But this time she wanted to ride all of the rides over and over. Her favorite was the boats, don't know why but she just laughed and laughed and didn't want to get off.

She still hated the roller coaster! Maybe next time!






The other day we heard Kylan crying in her bedroom so we went in and found her trapped in her closet. Dont' know how she climbed through that but she made it to what she wanted: all the wrapping paper/gift bags/ & ribbon!

We had a good Memorial Day. Went and explored a new park with Kylan, barbequed some hamburgers, played frisby golf, & I won a game of Settler's of Catan!! Now it's back to school for Kurt but we are counting down the days to come back to Idaho in July for 3 weeks.
