Cabin Fun!

Jeff played in a golf tourney with his dad a couple weekends ago so the kids & I headed up to the cabin for a little fun with my folks & Dusty & Gina!  The kids absolutely LOVE the lake & it's so fun to experience it all through their eyes.  They don't stop from the minute we get there & it's one adventure after another.  Their FAVORITE thing is going on tube rides, followed up by swimming in the lake (Brady) and going on boat rides (Livvy.)  



Our little cabin!  Mom & Dad sodded the yard earlier in the month & it really added a lot of space.


Papa taught Brady how to charge a battery-one of the manly things to learn at the cabin! :)








Aunt Gina gave us all matching hairdos!



One of my favorite things to do up there~stand up paddle!





Sunset Boat Rides!


Our good friends, Joe & Terry Johnson & Steve & Nita Wheeler came over for the afternoon & had dinner with us--also joined us for a double boat sunset cruise!

Liv's favorite spot on the boat!






Brady learned to snap earlier in the week so this is literally what he was doing the whole time...so stinkin' cute!


The kids & I were going to sleep under the stars on the deck, but the blow up bed had a hole!   We did get a little time watching the stars though...

Summer's Here!





After 8 months of winter here in Bozeman we try to take advantage of every.single.day of our beautiful summers!  We have had a great week of fun-filled summer activities this week-here is a little recap!
Monday we had our Couples League with some very good friends out at Riverside.  It was a perfect night that ended with the 3 groups in a tie so we had a 1-hole derby which was so much fun!

You can see it's a little smokey--firefighters have been battling forest fires all around us but seem to have them pretty contained now.  Scary stuff.


My cousin, Gretchen and her kids were visiting this week from NYC!  Max & Brady had tennis lessons every morning which they loved.  It gave me a chance to snuggle my little God Daughter, Lucy, and catch up with Gretchen!  Liv & Tessa had so much fun playing together & watching their big brothers.  We also had a fun playdate at the pool!

Jeff, the kids & I headed down to the first Music on Main of the year last night!

Catching Up...A Great Visit to Arizona!

Whoa...this is waaaaayyy late but we took a really fun, quick trip to Scottsdale in late January.  It was a great weekend because we were able to combine a fun State Farm gathering at the Gainey Ranch with seeing our dear friends, The Poortingas, and their sweet baby, Maree!  It was wonderful catching up with them & also enjoying a fun little adult getaway!  The kiddos got to spend a great few days with Grammy & Grampy which was wonderful!

Sweet little Maree--she has changed so much since this picture was taken!  She is such a sweet little baby & I loved holding her as much as possible!


We went to some pretty amazing places to eat while we were there-this was at Mastros Steakhouse where they LOVE Marc & Ellen.  We were treated like celebs by the entire staff & we weren't sure why they made us this special dessert with "Congratulations" on it but we think it was because Marc was bragging about Jeff's business which was really sweet. :)


We were having a blast at this point...




Jeff & I took these little cruising bikes & rode around the resort.  I love how even with shades on, his eyes are still closed in this picture. :)


A little pickup game at the pool with our SF buddies & Papa! :)


We had a great day of golf with my folks!
