Last night we all went for a picnic near the river. It was Jennifer's last evening in Wyoming and we wanted to spend a bit more time with her.
We watched a kayaker playing in the river.
It made me rather nervous when he purposefully flipped upside down.
Elise wasn't interested in our picnic but she
loved being outside.
She was happiest when we were walking and exploring.
Grandpa let her get her toes wet.
Sam got some text messages...lots of them I think.
I'm not certain he even knew we were on a walk.
Cordelia got to get her feet wet as well.
Jennifer may have been thinking about the 30 hours of travel
she had ahead of her. Australia is a long way from Wyoming.
Eric told her tales of the Old West.
Sam did more texting.
I love seeing these two together...
It makes me remember a sweet
time in our lives, just starting our family
and enjoying the gift of friendship.
Jennifer and her parents were our guests for Maria's
first birthday, over 31 years ago.
We had some really fun times together.
But look at these girls, friends from birth!
Here they are at age one.
They absolutely loved being together!
I think this photo was taken by Jennifer's Dad, Jim.
They formed a bond that withstood
both years and distance.
This photo was for sure taken by Jim.
Safe travels, Jennifer!
