Montana 2009

So we FINALLY were able to get some vacation time and get over to Montana, like we used to do all the time. We found a rental house in Superior, MT, which is right on the Montana/Idaho border. It was a huge house right on the river and we were lucky enough to have the rodeo and Mineral County fair going on that same weekend. We didnt get a ton of pictures because Lauren was fussy the whole weekend and I kept leaving the camera at home, but here are a few we did get.

Here we are on the first day playing in the river,
the river was huge and slow enough to float around and play in "safely".

Lauren & Jamie in the boat, Joe and Jane up stream

I think this is the only family picture we got the whole trip, and I dont think Lauren can move.

Joe in the kayak, across the river you can see where a family of beavers were living.

Lauren getting the oars ready to go look for the beaver family

And the last day (the next time we got good pictures) there weren't many since lauren was being a pill, here are a few of the good ones. I think she was upset because she knew she had a 7 hour car ride ahead of her, I guess I dont blame her.

*Lauren, Pat & Laurie

Lauren & Pat (even though shes not smiling this is probably the best picture she took, so much for her modeling career)

Grandpa Jim, Lauren (whos had enough) Pat & Laurie

Of course we didnt get a picture with all of us in it, well have to try again next time.

Jane, Joe & I got left out of the pictures but I swear we were there.
