Our end in Ohio and onto Montana

Hope you have time because this post has lots of pictures!

Well the end began with the famous Salsa contest with our PSIO fraternity group. Yummy!
The kids got to hit the pinata many times.
Daisy was the first to smack it!
Lily was a fierce hitter. It was really funny.
Yes! finally it broke and they got CANDY!
Lily was so funny. she wouldn't just grab the candy and stick it in her bag like all the others. She picked through it all and only picked her favorites.
Our next event was the Dental Formal. This was the first year we went and it was a lot of fun. We went with some of our best friends Rochelle and Jeremy Wilde.
It was fun hanging out with so many of our friends we have made in school.
(Justin and Anna Rhodes, Jonathan and Caprice Walker, Jeremy and Rochelle Wilde, Chauncy and Melany West, Bryce and Krystal White, Brandon and Brittany Arnow)
We met up with Justin at the zoo after he had a field trip at the Zoo's hospital.
The Girls and I. we sure have loved coming to the zoo.
Justin and Anna at the PSIO-nora. Our senior send off. The had some funny videos and stories. we had a great laugh!

Easter Sunday the girls got new dresses. They are so cute!
We had our good friend Bill come over and have dinner with us before we moved. I will sure miss all his phone calls checking up on me.
We also had a huge yard sale. we just didn't have room for all our stuff in the horse trailer. We got rid of EVERYTHING! Unbelievable.
Our last Dental event was the Senior Dinner. It was good to get together with all of the classmates of that year and say good bye. We really did make a lot of friends here in Ohio.

Eating at red Lobster. Happy Birthday Anna-
The girls loved playing with the crab claws. They were picking stuff up with them and eating it.
Along our way to Montana we had a fun road trip. We decided we anted to stop at alot of the church history sites.
Here we are at Nauvho on the wagon ride.
we got to see alot of historic Nauvoh from the wagon
Our wagon driver was a good friend of our Grandpa Merrill
The temple was very gorgeous

Played in the Mississipi river at the end of the Nauvhoo lane
The girls loved dressing up as pioneers and playing with the toys and games.
We also stayed to watch the Nauvhoo play the couple missionaries put on. It was fun!
We went to Carthage Jail
Next stop was Adam-ondi-Ahman
Liberty jail
As we drove through South Dakota we say the Bad Lands
Lily
Daisy
There were some really cool formations
I think this trip completely wore out the girls (Me included), but we had fun and are glad we got to see and do so much.
We made it here to Dillon, MT
