6-30, Montana Highlights

I can't believe it's already been two months since we've been on vacation.  I can't believe I'm still trying to get caught up on all the photos!  So, in the spirit of efficiency, this is a vacation highlights post.  Enjoy!

The Dinosaur Museum

It's pretty cool to think you can reach out--- and touch a dinosaur!

You're never to old to get caught in the spirit of the REALLY OLD.

Wow, right?!

Somewhere between here and there.....

We pulled into Hamilton just in time to treat Sven (and Grandma!) to a nice Father's Day dinner.  (Grandma doesn't know what she's in for sitting between these two!)

Sven's Montana Vacation Bucket List:  hang out in town at a coffee shop.  Man, oh, man did we scratch that one off the list (over and over and over).  Thanks, Jackie, for introducing us to the best coffee shop in town!

A trip to the German brewery for lunch.  Excited kids and a happy Grandma and Grandpa.

It seems like we introduce Grandma to a new brewery every time we visit her.  LOL....

Me, my grandma and a beautiful garden bouquet for my grandpa.
(How funny that we're the turquoise twins, right?)

A happy 29th birthday to me with my family!

This kid doing what he does best....

....and learning it from the master.

Me and my grandma.  Love her!!

No trip back home is complete without a tractor ride at Uncle Darryl's.

Emalie's Montana Bucket List:  ride horses (yes, we think ponies count).

Happy girl.

This animal lover has a tender heart.

Cousins reunited: Kade, Emalie, Nik and Lauren.
Too bad we couldn't have gotten them all together!

He's adding fly-fishing to his repertoire.

Look at this cute crew!

How fun to hang out with Uncle Thad in the Bitterroot!

Just relaxing by the river!
(Thanks for the great photo, Nik!)

I spy with my little eye..... Emalie playing cards with Great-Grandma.  Too cute.

The Bitterroot Mountains.

The Bitterroot River.

And a final goodbye to Aunt Jackie, Uncle Darryl and everyone else back home.



We Miss You All!!
