You are at the Insane Asylum...???

Kathy's daughter is moving to Evanston WY and needed Kathy to go watch her kids while she did a "walk through" her house.  Kathy asked a few of us if we wanted to go with her.  Kathy needed a little help since she crashed on her bike and hurt herself...plus it was a good excuse for a girls road trip.  Jodi and I were game and Carla and Robin almost came but had things come up the last minute. :(

Of course we had a good time!  We always have a wonderful time when we get together.  I think the three of us are the "trouble makers" or "fun lovers".  We definitely have a good time!

We are always looking for "photo opportunities" and ways to be silly.  We had some pretty good laughs today...the kind that makes you almost wet your pants.  It started off when I gagged when Jodi was putting her teeth with a sucker on the back into her mouth with the wrapper still on it.  Why that would make me gag is a question I don't quite understand but it did.  I gag watching my kids get impressions of their teeth too. I gag if I bite a little piece of paper to hold for a second, or when I brush my teeth, or when I see something disgusting, or when  I see a picture of chewed up gum or even talk about it, or.......so many things make me gag.  I just have a good gag reflex I guess and when I make the gag noise around others its funny.  Jodi had a few moments today that about made her seat wet.

We took Kathy's grands to a park while their parents did their walk through.  We were at the park for a few hours and had a great time with Kathy's grands.  They are really cute kids and very well behaved and fun.  They kind of liked us too! ☺ (I got sunburned)

We decided after awhile to play on the train too.  Carter was our photographer and I think he did a pretty good job. Chasee was taking pictures after and she took some fun pictures.  I am not as brave or agile as I use to be or even think I am.  Jodi on the other hand....well....she did get on top of the train and got to the seat on the rope jungle thing.  Maybe she is the reason Chasee called us Monkey Grandmas.

I think we had as good of time as the kids did.  I know Chasee didn't want  to see us go.  She liked Jodi and I and gave us big hugs when it was time to go.  I'm glad we were able to go with Kathy and enjoy her grands and I'm really glad her grands enjoyed us too.  So much fun!

Jodi went to post where we were and Google came up with....Wyoming Insane Asylum.  That was another moment of laughing our guts out.  We didn't know they still had a place like that.  It really is called something else....like Wyoming State Hospital.  That sounds better...at least if you have to go there or send someone there.  We decided since we must be close we should go there.  More laughter when a few guys stopped us and asked if we needed help.  We told the first guy why we were there and he seemed a bit amused but the next guy...the director over the place wasn't nearly as amused.  Maybe it was because Jodi and I were wearing glasses with big noses and mustaches....or maybe he thought we were making fun of the place....not sure but we were amused and couldn't stop laughing.  When we were leaving we stopped to get a picture and a lady followed us out and asked again if we needed help?  She ended up taking our picture. ☺  I don't think this place is use to people driving around it...they must have camera's because they knew we were there.

We stopped at a cute craft store and ended up buying a "Happy" Souvenir to remember our fun road trip.

Part of the plan was to stop at Taggarts on our way home and we did stop but that was it because Taggarts is always closed on Mondays! BOO!  We knew there were people in there and was hoping that they would just let us get a cookie or treat...because really that is all we wanted.  A lady did see Jodi and Kathy peeking in and came to the door and told us they were closed and that they had been closed on Monday's for 10 years.  We couldn't convince her to sell us a goodie.

Since we couldn't get a treat at Taggarts we went to Applebee's and shared a Triple Chocolate Meltdown!  That was a perfect way to end a fun day!

I love my friends, and fun outings, and grand babies, and chocolate to start and end my day! ♥
