motorhome

On our way home from the Tulip Festival John and I just decided to look at getting a small motorhome for camping. We looked on the internet for one. We were really surprised that we found a great deal on one but it was in LasVegas!  It was a rather quick decision but we needed to act fast for the great deal!  We needed to put a bit down and pay for gas and stuff for the drive home so here John is counting our change.  We rolled about $750! (that paid for the gas)  Oh yea, we also found the two quarters Doranda was looking for. 
John's brother works at Alaska Airlines so he got us some " Buddy Passes" to fly down to Vegas on.  My good friend Shannon also works there and was working the morning we were going so she picked us up at 4am, drove us, checked us in, and up-graded us to first class for free!  Things were off to a great start!  We also stayed at a nice hotel off the strip that had a movie theater and bowling alley.  It was fun!  The drive home was longer then we expected.  I had know Idea we were going to be driving through Provo,  but since we did we stopped and picked up Isaac's bike for him.  We can't wait to try it out camping!!! I think our first adventure will be May 1st,  John, I and all three dogs! Wish us luck!
These photo's were taken in our driveway,  I wanted to take lots of photo's along the way but I charged the camera, downloaded and emptied the sd card then went to take my first photo and relized I left the sd card in my computer at home!  We barly got it parked along the side of the house.  Thanks to our neighbore's and John's good skill after about an hour they got it.  Our neighbor offered to help us widen our fence.  We will be taking him up on that soon!

HAPPY EASTER

I'm still trying to figure out how to post, up-load, and move things. As most of you know I am very computer (and spelling) challenged. Slowly I am figuring it out, but am still waiting for tutorial from one of my fabulace sisters or sister-in-laws!










John and I spent the day at the 27th annual Tulip Festival. This year Easter was a bit differant for us sence my parents were out of town nobody was comming to visit. This is also the first year I can remember not doing an Easter egg hunt! We decieded to drive up north to Skagit Valley and check out the tulips. We went there once before but it was late in the season and most the tulips were already done, so this year we went early and it was much more beautiful! There was also some really big kites flying and plenty of wind for them!
