Mission Accomplished

Well the drive over was longer than usual of course, but I left at just the right time - after restrictions had been lifted, but before everything froze up. So it was a nice drive, and as always after a storm - magnificently beautiful!!!

I pulled over in the chain-up area at Emigrant Gap to refill my windshield wiper fluid - I even put it in the right spot, because I'm smart like that :)

Looking north east from Emigrant Gap (my pocket camera isn't so bad)

The girls were happy to see me, especially Eva! She was getting a little homesick, even though she was having fun. Sophie, on the other hand, was happy to see me, but didn't want to leave and could have gone another four or five days without seeing me. It was one big giant five night long slumber party in the bonus room with Jamie and Julia for her. At about 10:00, Janene and I thought all the girls were asleep and went in to check on them and turn the television off. This was the scene

Jamie and Julia on the sofa bed, sweetly obeying orders

And Sophie still awake, playing with dolls (it was her turn on the floor)

It was so cute, Janene had an overwhelming desire to kiss her!

Upon further inspection, it was discovered that Sophie had apparently started a Barbie dressing marathon

She's showing disturbing early signs of obsessive compulsive hyper enthusiasm for starting new projects late at night, just like her dear mother ;-)

Two down, only 150 to go...
