After touring Dinosaur State Park Kevin,
Cassidy and I went to stay at Fossil Rim Lodge. We had dinner at the Lodge Thursday night. Then, Friday morning we took a guided tour through Fossil Rim. The tour took about three and half hours. Normally, it takes about a hour and half, but due to the huge Spring Break crowd the tour took a lot longer. During the week of spring break if you drive through in your car the tour would have taken between five and six hours. They were averaging 700 cars a day. It was a great trip, but I would recommend going on a weekend other than Spring Break!

Side view of the Lodge where we spent the night. We stayed in the room lower level first room on the left. I'm mad I didn't get a picture of the front of the Lodge. It was a neat place! I know this was a huge post. We took so many pictures on this trip. Kevin and I are ready to go back to work so we can both rest. It was a very busy spring break!
We had our annual Mother's Day gathering at Casa De Rosa. Every year we get together at Kevin's parents house for a fun filled Mother's Day. Each year we take a picture of the Mommies and their girls.

Mom and Me
Emma and Libby. Libby just turned 6 and Emma will be 10 in July. I can't believe how grown up they both look in this picture.
It was a little muddy and the kids usually play outside so Mi Mi and Pa Pa set up a craft table in the garage. The girls really enjoyed playing with playdough, coloring and drawing.
Lynn, Cassie, and Mi Mi ready for a ride in the golf cart. The kids enjoy riding in the golf cart around the lake.
We took the kids for a walk after our lunch and the 3 youngest girls enjoyed a ride in the wagon. I don't think the three of them will fit next year!
Pa Pa and Cassidy. We took the girls to do a little fishing at the small Fox Pond where only children and their parents or caregivers are allowed to fish. The girls enjoyed it!
Jeff caught a fish. The girls were so thrilled!
Me and Lynn. Mundy took this picture. She mentioned that we had the same smile. She is right. Lynn is so much fun!!! 
Me and my baby. Can't believe that she is 4! She decided to put tattoos on her cheeks. She has dance pictures in two days! I wish Daddy would have checked in before applying 2 tattoos to his daughter's face!!! We had a wonderful Mother's Day!!!!
