After an adventure-filled weekend in Kalispell, Montana, I finally have a chance to sit down and update! First, a funny story that could only come from the land of Wagner in the beautiful state of Montana...We were driving back from Kalispell where Bo had announced a rodeo, when he suddenly made a different kind of announcement - the call of nature was upon him. (Basically, he just had to pee). Both of the kids were sleeping in the back of the truck we had borrowed for our journey so we decided to just pull off the side of the road at the first available clearing. Keep in mind it is pitch black and going on 10:00 at night. As the truck slows to a stop I look up just in time to see where my husband has parked us - right underneath a friendly sign welcoming us to "GRIZZLY ENCOUNTER!" Nope, not kidding. We were at the entrance to what I can only imagine was a Jurassic Park-type arena where cuddly little grizzly bears are just waiting for a midnight snack. I pointed this out to my husband, with a VERY CALM tone of voice I might add. Needless to say, we didn't stick around long enough to encounter any grizzlys this time around.
We are really looking forward to our trip back home again!! We will leave one week from today, July 3rd, and leave on Monday, July 14th. Not excited about the humidity again but we ARE looking forward to the air condition (our house and van are currently sans air).
The kids are doing great and staying healthy. We are so blessed to have time with our kids and (usually) are able to look back on the day with a grin over all of their silly antics. Landon's nickname of late is "Chili Chomper"...not sure where that one came from but he did try to steal his sister's PBJ sandwich yesterday at the park. That kid can EAT! Juliana decided her bathing suit was a little too restrictive last week at a water park so I finally knew how it felt to be THAT MOM that everyone is laughing at (with?) as her kid streaked across the field.
Well, better run - kids are awake! Can't wait to see everyone soon.
