Montana Last Day

Our last day we headed to a family picnic for Andrew's reunion. We didn't attend the main event because it was at a bar and we had nothing to do with our kids, plus it would have cost us $40 a person which they specifically said would be for drinks as well so I didn't really want to pay for someone else to drink! We get to the park and Andrew really didn't know more than a handful of people and it was really awkward! He chatted for a bit and we walked around the park and then left! I had developed a cold the night before and hardly had any sleep so I just wasn't feeling up to anything but sitting with my head back!

Our next stop was Andrew's Dad's grave. It had been 10 years since we had visited and our kids had never been. They were a little confused at first because we just buried Grandpa Karl and it wasn't here and so we had a good discussion sitting there at the cemetery explaining to them who each Grandpa was. I know they knew their Grandpa Bibo before they came to us here on earth and that someday they will know him again! I never knew my Dad's dad either, so I look forward to knowing him someday as well!

The view from his headstone, not to bad at all!!

I just love this girl!!

We ended the night at Mike and Naty's house. Naty had to work but Mike grilled burgers for us and had a great meal for us! It was so nice of him and nice to see them one more time before we left! Our kids loved their kids! We left early the next morning and drove home! It was a quick trip but I am so glad we went! It was great for all of us!

Glacier National Park

After we left the Maze we drove to the Glacier entrance! It was insane how many people were going in and out! We knew we were just going to be there a few hours but it is kind of crazy how much you have to pay for a day pass!

We did a couple little easy kid hikes! Someday we hope to spend more time but our kids are way to little to do more than what we did, they can't be trusted to not run off a cliff yet!

Throwing rocks in the river!!

This waterfall looks totally fake in this picture but it was amazing in person!

We ended at the Lake and I seriously could have sat there all day! No one around and it was so calm and serene! Hopefully someday we can spend a whole day sitting there!

The kids got soaked and I had no other clothes for them!

We live in such a amazing and beautiful country!

This is the bottom of a tree that fell years ago! It is amazing how big it is!

This made me nervous with my kids the water was going so fast and loud, I had my kids by each arm as tight as I could!

Montana Glacier Maze

The next day of our trip we met up with Andrew's friend Mike and his wife and boys. We drove up to Glacier and went to the Glacier Maze and fun center. We got a pass for everything. We started by doing the maze. We did teams and Ella and I were on a team! It was a lot of fun! She thought it was a great adventure! We then ate our picnic and then we drove to Glacier for a few hours. After we got back we did Go Carts, Mini Golf, and Bumper boats! It was such a fun day! We finished off the night at a local place which was really good! 

These are way out of order!

Go Carts!!

The Sky in Montana can't be described, that is why they call it Big Sky country!

We let the kids play ahead of us and the adults played together! It was a nice break from them!

Us at one of the four checkpoints of the maze! I just love this close up of Ella and he cute little freckles!

We each did the go carts a few times and Andrew and Mike did it one more time to race each other!

I was really worried about getting soaked on these but they were a lot of fun! It was nice Addie was able to do these since she couldn't ride the go carts!
