Vacation!

Well, we finally got to take a "vacation" this summer! Our daycare was closed so the kids went to Alliance with my parents on monday. Chad and i had a few days with no kids. That was weird! on Tuesday we went out to eat at Old Chicago and then went to see the "Dark Knight" I have to admit, i enjoyed it! On wednesday we headed towards alliance with the panda. see kidwellpanda.blogspot.com for that exciting trip!
We surprised the kids when we got to Alliance, they thought we weren't coming until Thursday! we brought Braxton's jeep and him and Lilly decided to go for a ride!
On Thursday, we decided to run up to Scottsbluff to look for some stuff at home Depot, we didnt' find it! But we did take a few pictures of the bluff. When we got home, we walked to the fountain, it was really neat! Braxton was magic, he could make the fountain turn on and off! he thought it was pretty neat!
on friday, we drove up to Hot Springs, SD and went to the Mammoth Site. It was so neat! They found a huge sink hole where over 58 mammoths are buried. the tour takes you through the sink hole, and braxton got to help with the tour! They have a museum with a replica bone hut and some animals.
Saturday was super HOT and we didn't do too much during the day. It finally rained for about 15 minutes that evening and cooled it off! After that we decided to take the kids to the drive-in. They were showing Wall-E and Indiana Jones. Lilly fell asleep almost before Wall-E started. braxton made it almost all of the way through wall-e and loved it! We all had a great time!
Sunday we drove home, seeing hundreds of bikes headed to Sturgis! It was a great weekend!
