26 Hours in a Car...

We have a serious buyer for our home in Colorado. The buyer also happens to be a close personal friend we knew while living on the Navajo Reservation...so we decided to make the trip to do the walk-through with him and pick up our jeep/snowplow...now that winter is over. Smart, huh! We forgot how long of a drive it is. I have to say the boys did so well, though. I was very impressed. Bryce did puke (of course) but most of it was into his blanket, so it was fairly easy clean up.

My husband, or "STRONG MAN", as I am going to call him in this post, is so amazing! Strong man loaded this jeep-with its locked steering wheel and flat tires, one click at a time with a come-a-long all by himself. But that isn't the most impressive thing...
He actually picked up that little snowmobile trailer you see on the end of the trailer with his forearms and set it on the big trailer, then did the same with the heavy plow...AND THEN "Strong Man" had to take it back off again because the trailer ended up being too front heavy. So, it looks like we have to take one more trip to get the rest of our stuff. I tell you, I'm not moving that far away EVER again. I can't even tell you how many trips it has taken to get all our stuff.

The boys, meanwhile, got to play in the MUD...and a ton of it...and play with their cousin Adrey. Here are the three of them together. They are great friends...it is too bad we live so far away now. We miss Nate & Becky, Adrey & Cru and are sorry we couldn't stay longer. Thanks for all your help with the house, by the way! We really appreciate it!
One of my next posts will be before and after of this crazy house we are trying to sell. It was a major remodel that we did over the course of 1 1/2 years from 3 1/2 hours away....stay tuned...
