Spring!

Me and Lexi left Ryan for 2 weeks to go visit my family in Missouri for their spring break. I have to admit I wasn't very excited for the trip for 2 reasons. First, I had never been apart from Ryan for more than 24 hours and didn't know how I'd do without him. : ) Second, Lexi had never been on an airplane before and I didn't know how she would do! But we both survived. Lexi actually did really great on the plane and slept through half of it. Our family went to Little Sahara in OK for a couple days until a snowstorm came and forced us to leave. We had a great time while we were there and enjoyed the sunshine while it lasted. Lexi really hates her carseat and had to be entertained on the 6 hour drive there. We all got sick of listening to baby mozart over and over and over.. Trevor tried over and over to get his jeep up this hill. My mom, dad, and me, along with about 8 other random guys sat at the top of the hill on our fourwheelers rooting for him but he never did make it up. This is also the hill where my mom rolled her fourwheeler! Luckily she wasn't hurt and even got right back on to ride and rolled it a second time before we were finished. : ) Poor mom. First day of spring! Me and my mom went out in the snow to get groceries only about 2 miles away. On the way home mom was just cruising along and I asked her if the roads weren't slippery. She said no and about 5 seconds later we about landed in the ditch! VERY scary. Church was cancelled the next day too and that hardly ever happens.
Last week me and Ryan went to go play golf with Adam and Mary but they wouldn't let us on the course with Lexi so we had to go to the driving range instead. The guy did give us a free token since he felt bad about telling us no. Lexi did good sitting in her stroller eating puffs and watching Ryan. Easter weekend we went to Greensboro to see Ryan's family. Lexi had lots of fun with Grandma Gladden. Here's a video of them but you have to try hard to ignore Ryan's brother on the phone ordering Mexican.



We went over to Adam and Mary's house for a barbecue inbetween sessions of conference on Sunday. We played a super fun lawn game afterwards.(don't remember the name of it) Then we had an easter basket hunt!! Adam made personalized baskets for all of us. Ours even came with a bunny hat for Lexi. : )

TIP: NEVER say to Jeran "picture time" in a high pitched voice..he will yell at you!
