Family visit and Water again, Yay!

Sunday morning our pump went out, so no water to get ready for church. Luckily that evening I had already planned to head south to visit my sis (Beck, a.k.a. Reba--I'm the only one allowed to call her that) and her family. My bro Aaron was there, too.

The scenery along the way was spectacular.

This was my sole travel companion, the rest of the kiddos had already gone down with my parents a couple of days earlier.

Tried and tried to get this niece to do her dimply grin for the camera, this was the best I could get. Still very cute.

We went on a bike ride, and half way through split up so the girls (me, sis, mom) could take the stroller and the bike pulling little ones the "easier" way back while dad and her hubby took the older kids. Our route turned out to be mostly straight up-hill. Sis and I traded off burning out our thighs pedalling (pushing when it got too steep) the extra weight.

All our hard work tired out these two nieces, but my nephew was having too much fun to sleep.

Sis, Mom, and one of the nieces.

Reba again.

Came home to no water still, made me grouchy, but hubby was a hero and stayed home this morning, pulled the pump and fixed it. Happy ending!
