Borens Come to Rapid City!

Dad and mom took Moroni and Nephi on a long road trip. They went to TX to visit David and his family...and Isaiah too. Isaiah lives in TX now.
Then they visited church sites on their way to us.

Thursday afternoon they arrived in Rapid City! Dad and Mom have the guest room/workout room. Moroni and Nephi have the boys' room. And my boys are staying in Athena's room with her. 

Thursday we shared pretzel pigs in a blanket for dinner. Then we played retro video games and hung out. 
Friday Mom and I went shopping for Halloween clearance. We ate healthy chocolate lava cake for breakfast. We ate sandwiches  before driving up to Keystone.





 Then Mt Rushmore! Luckily it was a warm and sunny day. About 50degrees with almost no wind.






 Grandpa carried Athena when we started the hike because she said she was tired. Grandpa didn't know that Athena likes to steer when up on someone's shoulders. Left, right, left again. Go crazy and dance!







So happy my brothers were able to come!




 A mountain goat near the parking garage! We also saw two young deer as we exited the monument.


 For dinner we went to Sickie's Garage for burgers! Crazy burgers. Yum!





Video game night! New Super Mario Brothers Wii!
It was so fun to see Dad and Mom play too!


And over here we have retro games happening! Mostly Mario games.

 Movie night! Ant Man in 3D with Pizza Ranch piz



We went rock wall climbing!




















Then we went to the tower where Sterling works.






 Air and Space Museum




Sunday we went to our 11am church services. Then home for a relaxing rest of the day. 
Monday morning the Boren hit the road early. And drove all the way home!!! About 14 hours driving. For us it would be 16 hours.

It was such a great time having them here! We love my family. And the weather was not too bad while they were here.
