Photos from Kalispell

We've been having a good time here in Kalispell. The boys are having lots of fun playing together and its been fun spending time with Heather and getting to know Talea a little better. We have been on bike rides, played at the park, went to story time at the library, and went to youth group (Jason is the youth pastor). It rained the first full day we were here but today was nice and its just going to get warmer. We have had all 5 kids napping at the same time twice so far which was a nice, quiet break. It really does feel like a vacation without school, t-ball, soccer, MOMS, daily chores in our own home, and the boys entertain each other.

Here are some pictures of the fun times had so far...

Here they are playing train in the kitchen with the chairs:


The "Gamers":

Talea pretty in pink. Man I love those hair bows!



"Baby" tackle time:



All 5 kids in Heathers Expedition. The babies are on either side of Ashton:



They boys are all 13 months apart (3, 4 & 5):


We went to a park today and there was this huge hill with this trail going up it. Kevin could hardly stand to wait for me to walk over there with him so he could walk up it. He kept telling me "Its in my heart to go climb that hill"

Kevin in the lead, Titus next and Ashton not far behind:


They made it! It was pretty steep and slippery:


All you 'Little House on the Prairie' fans, does this look familiar?


View from the top (yes, that means I walked up that hill too, with Jordan strapped to me)

Look at the mountains in the background. So pretty. Oh, and Kevin too. He's pretty cute :)



Jordan 6 1/2 months. Talea 8 months:


Tackle time with Uncle Jason. Ashton didn't want to join in at first. He said "I tackle my own Daddy" in a sweet little sad voice. Later on, on our bike ride/walk, he ended up tackling Jason in the grass. Nobody is as fun or as great as our own Daddy though, that is for sure!




Jordan isn't quit sitting up full time on his own yet, but he is practicing:




Uncle Jason and Ashton:


This is Joran's first time in a stroller while NOT in his car seat:



We brought Titus a cowboy costume for his birthday and all the boys tried it out:


"My home's in Montana, I wear a bandana, my spirs are all silver my pony is grey..."
