Second Birthday

Kinley had a wonderful birthday weekend with the Kay Clan in town.  It feels so weird being able to celebrate special occasions with family!  We had a great weekend celebrating our little girl and playing with little Elias!  

Thanks for coming into town guys, we had a great time!

Ok, so here is a post of pictures trying to catching you up on what we have been doing since we have arrived in Montana.  We have been so busy playing and trying to soak up all the summer sun!

Weekend retreat at Fairmount Hot Springs!  What an awesome residency program!

Eating burgers in Butte with Jason, Steffany, and Elias!  I have seen these guys more this summer then I have in the past 10 years!

She is going to be such a good big sister!

Made it to the top of the M to check out our new town!

Repurposing furniture for our new house!  This one was painted for Kinley!

Pool time!

Camping with the Kay clan!  Boy was it cold!

More furniture re-due!

Bozeman

After leaving Colorado, we spent another long day in the car driving to my brothers house in Bozeman.  We stayed there a few days waiting for our moving truck to make it's way to Missoula.

Slacking

I know, I am so far behind of blogging.  I dread putting up a blog because I have so much to post, and I really cant remember it all.  So, I will try and catch up and see if I can get back to real time before this baby comes!!
Ok, so after our final night in Hershey, we left town super early.  We were headed to my sisters house in Colorado Springs, about 1,600 miles away.  We ended up spending the night outside St. Louis, Missouri in a sketchy motel.  I was up all night itching afraid I was going to get some nasty bugs.  And Tim ended up waking around 4:30 saying he was ready to get on the road.  So, away we went.  We decided we didn't care to spend another night in a cheap motel, so we set our sights on Colorado Springs.  Kansas was of course having some scary storms producing tornadoes, so we were determined to get through that state as fast as possible.  We had to stop at one point for dinner, and were in shock by the power of the wind.  We were actually afraid our car doors were going to blow off.
Since the kids were still in good spirits, we trucked it to Aunt Nanna's.  We got in pretty late and were beyond exhausted from the past few days.  We were thankful to sleep in a clean bed and were able to get lots of good rest and Nanna's house for the next 5 days.
