Two of Adrianna’s friends biked over to our house after school for a surprise visit. She was still in her pajamas when they showed up! Haha! They actually had texted her to let her know of their plan, but she always forgets to check her messages, so that’s why their visit was a surprise! I […]

Freddie
We received a mystery package on our doorstep and though we suspected Grandpa and Grandma Debbie, Grandpa was playing coy. The girls love their new Easter bunny and Bree has named him Freddie. A couple of days later, an identical one appeared at Layla and Aidan’s, so I think our suspicions on the mystery sender […]
Game Night!
After the LONG day at the regional talent show, Karen and Zach joined us for dinner at Chipotle. We had arrived at the venue at 3pm and because of all the delays and technical issues, it didn’t end until 8pm. We were SO hungry. Afterward, we all played a game of Settlers of Catan, Cities […]
Casper
My niece, Layla, was in a bouldering competition in Casper today. Since that is *slightly* closer than her hometown and we knew we could fit in a visit with the Long family there too, the girls and I decided to drive up and cheer her on. She got first in her division! After the competition, […]
Christmas #3
Christmas #3 was to be spent with my side of the family. Unfortunately, the snow and windy weather kept away Cindy, Kendall, Layla and Aidan. Bree was especially vocal about her disappointment. She’d been happy about the snow when she woke up and saw it on the ground, all beautiful and white. But when she […]
Christmas #2
For our second Christmas this year, we were in Kansas with Greg’s family. On the 25th, we had a little birthday celebration for Bree and Cate, complete with a fancy rainbow cake made by Grammy (and decorated by Adrianna.) It was very impressive and the girls were thrilled and surprised by the rainbow inside! We […]
Thanksgiving
For Thanksgiving this year, the Reimer clan congregated and Sean and Kristi’s house in KC. Denver had received a foot of snow on the Monday/Tuesday before Thanksgiving, so we were thankful that the roads were improved by the time we left on Thursday. Though the interstate between Limon and Colby was a little dicey in […]
Reading
The Reimers (and cousins) sure love to read.
California Trip
Taking a train across the country is a great way to travel. #CaliforniaOrBust Leaving from Denver, it took about 31 hours until our destination (Sacramento). We didn’t pay extra for a sleeper room, so we slept in our seats. But they are much more spacious than an airplane and lean back farther. I love the […]
Cities and Knights
One of my favorite ways to spend an evening. Hanging out at Karen’s house, playing Settlers of Catan. #settlersofcatan#citiesandknights Tonight, we tried some new expansions (Fish, Caravan).
