Easter in Thermopolis


This year, we drove up to Thermopolis, WY to spend Easter weekend with London, Alissa, and Orion. We did our usual up and gone by 3 am thing and took the less traveled highway there. It was beautiful. I love driving on those roads. You saw some beautiful country, discussed whether or not we could live and have Ashton be their pharmacist, laughed at the city that had a population of 1 but also had a hotel, post office, and gas station in it. That is one busy person, heehee! We made it there and bombarded Lond and Lou's weekend. Alissa had just gotten back the day before from a trip to Idaho and London got home that evening from his Google trip to Australia.

It was fun getting to hang out with them. The boys definitely had a blast together. Dexter loved Orion and still talks about getting to play with him. We went to the park, threw rocks over the bridge, went bowling, did a drive by of the house they are buying, and out to lunch. We also did Easter baskets for the boys and they of course did and Easter Egg Hunt. We wouldn't be Jenks if we didn't!!! I did a pretty good job training Dex up for it. He was pretty competitive and would grab the egg that O was going for. I, however, didn't train Daddy how to help keep him focused on getting eggs, which proved to be our downfall. Orion won the egg hunt. Needless to say, they both had a blast.

Sunday was fun. I played the piano for their primary. Alissa is the Primary President and need a pianist and I was more than happy to help. I didn't know a couple of the "new" songs so things were kinda rough, but we all made it through.

London, Alissa, and Orion, thanks again for letting us bombard your weekend. It was fun to get to come play!
