Greetings from Kalispell


We made it to Kalispell Montana. It took 7 hours from Vancouver to Spokane. Then 4 hours from Spokane to Kalispell. The drive went well. The big boys did good and kept pretty busy. Jordan had a long crying spell until I fed him and another cry until he fell asleep. Here are the boys on the road trip:

They played video games..


Listened to books on tape...

Watched movies...
Took a nap...
and had a potty break...
We stopped in Spokane for the night.


The boys LOVE hotel beds...


Ashton climbed right in first thing...


Papa had lots of fun playing with Jordan, or as he called him "zero" (for his age) or "Jeremy Jr." because he looks so much like Jeremy.


We ate dinner at the restaurant next the hotel. Jordan decided to eat his toes for dinner...

Monday morning we drove 2 hours to St. Regis. We met Jason (Heather's husband) there and he drove us two more hours to Kalispell. Dad drove back to Spokane to make some business calls and then he will head home. Thanks for the ride Dad! You are the best!

Flathead Lake on our way to Kalispell. It is so pretty and big!...


The boys were all happy to see each other and have been having a fun time already. I think we have a boxer in our mist, what do you think? (Titus was OK after this KO in case you were wondering)...
Even Talea got in on the action...

Everyone is asleep now and hopefully will sleep well. Kevin and Ashton are in Talea's room (Talea is with mom and dad) and I could hear them on the monitor. This is what I heard:

Ashton: "This is our home. We are at home and this is my bed and that is your bed..."
Kevin: "We are not home, we are at Titus' house"
Ashton: "No, this is our home..."

Kevin patiently waits while Ashton goes on and on about us being at home, most of which you can barely understand with his 2 yr. old speech. When he is done talking...

Kevin: "Ashton. We are not at home. This is Titus' house. Does this LOOK like our house? Look, here is a crib and that over there and that..."

I was cracking up, it was so funny. Thank goodness Kevin is so patient with his little brother (most of the time).

Well that is all for now. The only computer here is Jason's laptop which he takes to work. I will try to post again in a couple days.

Oh my the memories you are creating. Yummy toe jam for Jordan Huh? I loved the conversation that you got to hear from Kevin and Ashton. Talea oh my she is going to be right down there with them, she will have to learn to be tough playing with all those boys. Dad got home at ten last night, he was wiped and slept til 8:30 this morning.
