We were very happy to see the Wyoming welcome sign after many hours in the bus with young kids.
Bob made arrangements to have an old fashion horse and buggy ride through downtown Laramie. It was the perfect day for it!
We had the perfect weather and the most wonderful time on the ranch.
Boyd & Ben, age 4, are ready to take over the ranch in their "real" cowboy gear.
I love this photo of two-year-old, Elle. She just LOVED riding the horses.
We had the most incredible experience at the Laramie Valley Chapel. The service was fantastic at this adorable church perched up on a hill surrounded by mountains. "The hills are alive" <3
We went the scenic route as we left Laramie and headed to Salt Lake City. This is one of my favorite memories of the trip as it was absolutely gorgeous up in the mountains near the Laramie Valley Chapel retreat. It was a blessing that the church people told us this way to go.
This will probably always be a favorite photo of Boyd for me. This IS Wyoming!
