    No. 11-1778.
    United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
    Submitted: Sept. 27, 2011.
    Filed: Oct. 4, 2011.
    William Edward Tarvin, Tarvin Law Firm, Bentonville, AR, for Appellants.
    Jason Scott Retter, Assistant Attorney General, Attorney General’s Office, St. Louis, MO, for Appellees.
    Before MELLOY, BOWMAN, and’ SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Connie and Karl Guthrie appeal the district court’s denial of their motion under Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(5) for an extension of time to file an appeal in their civil action. After careful review, see Gibbons v. United States, 317 F.3d 852, 853-54 (8th Cir.2003), we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion by finding that the Guthries failed to show excusable neglect warranting an extension. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. 
      
      . The Honorable Carol E. Jackson, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri.
