Weekend in McCook

This last weekend Matthew and I went to McCook, Nebraska to go to Christian and Jill's new baby's blessing. Friday night Matthew's parents got to our house about 2 in the morning, and stayed for the night. Then we had breakfast with Emily and Michael , Jan gave a few haircuts for the boys, and we were off to McCook. It is about a 5 hour drive to McCook. Matthew and I rode down with his parents. We stopped in Cheyenne and ate lunch with Stan's brother Bruce at his favorite Mexican restaurant. Then it was off on the road again. Matthew drove the whole way, so that it would give his parents a break from driving the night before. It was a really pretty drive, tons of farm land. When we got to their house they had dinner and stayed up telling stories and laughing. Matthew and I slept on a blow up mattress, not our most amazing sleep ever. It was a flat mattress by the time we woke up. Christian and Jill go to a little branch, and I mean little. But the blessing was so good, and their sacerment meeting was really good also. It was a bummer to have to leave and say good bye, but we had a great weekend.
