Visitors

We couldn't wait for Memorial Day weekend ....we were expecting some special visitors.

Luckily for us (not so much for them), we had also closed on our house that Friday and so we had started the process of moving stuff into the new place.  Grandpa and Grandma were good sports about it all. The first morning they were in Cheyenne, we loaded up their van (and ours) and made a trip over to Wellington to show them our new place.

We were grateful for their help in loading and unloading.....that nice,clean and empty garage didn't stay that way very long.  Funny how it seems so much bigger when it doesn't have all your stuff dumped in it:)

We enjoyed breakfast with them at their hotel in the morning.  Mark thought it was funny to see Kars with her spread.  This is her kind of thing...she can just sample a little of this and a little of that...pure heaven;)

 We also did a fair amount of swimming at their pool.

 and making jewelry with grandma....

 

Along with filling the U-Haul with furniture...we made some time to show Gram & Gramps a little bit of Cheyenne.  We were hoping to visit the capitol, but after finding out they were closed due to the holiday, we decided to take the Trolley Tour instead. The tour starts and ends at the historic Union Pacific depot.

  It was a fun-filled 90 minutes of facts and history about the area as well as a stop at the Old West Museum.  It was a good way to show them around!

 The museum was filled with a collection of historic carriages and wagons...

(and dress up, for those so inclined)

By the time we were done, we were all pretty hungry so we grabbed some lunch at Shadows Pub and Grill there at the Depot.

On their last night in town, we celebrated Karsyn's birthday with them.  Basically, she got to open her gift from them a few days early.  I wish that I had organized my brain enough to do a little something more, but she was just thrilled to have them here:)

So fun to have visitors...first ones at both our old and new house.  Can't wait for them to come back!!  Maybe next time we won't be moving;)
