Our Little Red Wagon

Hi all! For Christmas Ben's parents gave us money to get a wagon for the girls. Since we moved to Rexburg 3 days after Christmas and it's been really cold, we've haven't gotten it until now.
The girls LOVE it and Evelyn asks every day if she can go for a walk.


This was the night they got it. We walked out to get the mail. Getting the mail has never been so thrilling before! Sorry, no video of the mail, it was too dark.

We were so thrilled that the snow was melting and dripping off our roof, we just had to get out! We invited some friends to go with us to the nature park in our wagons. It was so much fun! It was a bit of a workout for us moms though, as you can see, there was still a good bit of snow on the path.

To me it seemed so warm, but when I told our Arizona family that we went for an hour long walk because it was above freezing (it was 37 degrees F), they shivered! The girls were SO happy to be outside.

Another wagon shot. Thank you so much! (Evelyn watched the original Mickey Mouse Club and always imitates something that Annette said, so that is what she is doing in the picture)

We should definately get together. Do you want to go on a walk tomorrow (Saturday, March 1) or something? Or some other time, I'm just excited to see you!

Oh me, oh my, what fun a little red wagon can be.

It goes slow and fast, it goes high and low.

These two little girls are lucky you see, to be loved so much by their grandpop and gramee!
