Pictures Day 4 Diller, NE 8-10-08




We finally woke up early enough to have the hotel breakfast. After we ate it, we wished we had slept through it instead! J Translation: not worth getting up for! We are all kind of tired today, except for Michael. Matt is feeling a tad under the weather-cold symptoms. (both he & Maddie have it). But we were on the road close to 10 after checking out of the hotel & getting gas.Today’s trip is about 538 or so-another long day. But we’re making it to “Diller-world” (Family Vacation movie). The Weers are our light at the end of the tunnel today.We stopped for a drive-thru lunch at Dairy Queen in Ft. Morgan, CO. We wanted to keep moving & figured it would be faster to feed Maddie in the car. Time of stop: about 10 mins. Back on the road again!Approx 2:45 central time we passed into Nebraska! Our ETA for Diller is about 8:45 (& that is if we went straight with no stops!)

Hi! Sorry to have left you hanging with our vacation tales! We had lots of fun & did things that we don’t normally do and I didn’t want to take any time while we there to post, so we will try to fill you in now.So, let’s start on Sunday evening (8-10). We arrived in Diller, Nebraska about 9 pm to a great welcoming party from Mark & Rachelle, Anessa & Curtis (her boyfriend), Ethan, Cole, Ellie & the farm dogs-Max, Daisy & Albert. (We met the kitties the next day!) After meeting everyone & getting the Tahoe unpacked, we were served some yummy brownies that Rachelle had made & home made ice cream that Curtis & Cole had made! We also had a tour of their house-wow! It’s huge & very pretty. Lots of space. Thanks to Anessa who gave up her room for us & then Cole gave up his room for Matt & Ethan had Cole in with him. Thanks for doing that for us! I hope we didn’t inconvenience you too much. We stayed up & talked for a while & then it was time to hit the hay! We were pooped!
