Spring Break with the Wolf


Remington waiting on the bedtime story. Someone from the "Pup Club" comes to the lobby to read all the kids who want to come a story and then they get to meet Wiley, the Wolf. This time the story was Is Your Mama a Llama? The lady who read it did lots of different voices and was fun to listen to.
"Wolf Walk" in the morning before breakfast. The guide leads the kids all around the lobby discussing various animals and their traits. The treehouse is really awesome in person. Also in the lobby.
They had some really cool Native dancers to greet guests this time. I don't remember their name and I doubt I could spell it if I did... but they were cool.


Wolf Lodge was a lot of fun again this year. Remington was tall enough to ride all the slides. (48 in). Although I think Clint enjoyed them more than she did. She was content to play in the water and all the fun toys they had.

Oh... Sweet Muffin....


So the last weekend of Spring Break brings this..... Ear infection, Darth Vader breathing, stuffy nose, no runny nose, no stuffy nose, no runny... no... well you get it.... "seal bark" cough, "Croop". Yeah what a way to end a wonderful time off. But can you imagine how it was when we didn't have the medicine we do now? Waking up with a child who can't breath... who doesn't feel good and there's really very little you can do about it? Praise God for modern science!! We love Doctor Wiley and his staff, even though we see them maybe once a year. That's a good thing, though. So when Remi gets sick, it's usually pretty sick. But even today she is breathing almost normal, still short of breath, but no fever and is feeling fine. Yeah and Praise the Lord for healthy (95% of the time) children!

It's Roundup Time!

I never attended the Rattlesnake Roundup before moving here to Sweetwater and I am happy to say that this year we will be out of town for it! Just the thought of all those rattling snakes in one area gives me the willies! I mean I know they are "contained" and the people have been doing this for years. However, I do not feel the need to subject myself to the noise and smell of these creatures just to get a funnel cake and homemade lemonade. I shall wait for the West Texas Fair and Rodeo to come back to Abilene, Thank you very much. BUt.... in honor of the "Roundup" there was a parade. Remington's little friend, Caleb, asked her to ride in it and throw candy. She, without giving it a moment's thought, of course said "YES!" Caleb's grandpa is running to be re-elected to Nolan County judge. They had a great time. Also riding and pictured here are Easton and Ruger, more of Little Miss' friends from school and church.

Fuzzy Bunny

Remi enjoyed going to the stockshow here in Sweetwater and visiting the bunnies. One of Daddy's powerlifters showed rabbits and let us love on one.
She loved it so much that they gave us one. She named him Felix or Cecil, or something... She can't decide. Thank you Nemirs!! We love our new fuzzy bunny!

Sweet Treat

Clint always enjoyed snow ice cream as a child. I don't recall ever making it. Maybe I did, maybe I didn't. But one thing is for sure, Remi loves it and so do I!! Sugar, vanilla, milk, and then add snow. I have no idea the amounts we just add till it tastes good!


We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman!

Our little snow family.
Snow today!!! It snowed at least 3 or 4 inches and we played outside all day!

Clint built Remi a great fort and she made good use of it trying to get him! She managed a few good shots.
