Gma Sue & Papa's Visit

Gramma Sue & Papa came for a long weekend.  It was quick, but we had fun!

Montana

We are back from our annual trip to Montana.  Had a wonderful time!

We spent one day in Billings, saw lots of family including Gramma Great and Penny!

Jim and Maddie were big hikers this year, spending lots of time on the trail together!

We went on lots of kayak rides.  This was just before I dropped my phone/camera in the lake.  It survived!

Spent lots of time on the porch watching this squirrel.

Celebrating August Birthdays.

Peyton picking a gift in the white elephant party.

Went on a hike to The Falls with all the Coxes.

Loved being there with Megan this year!  We had lots of time together and families had a great time together.

Aunt Janet and I

Megan and I took the girls over to Shannon one day and Helen and Peyton spent HOURS playing with the lake weed.

Lots of games with Gramma Sue.

Peyton working at her job, helping Sara with the espresso bar.  She got up every day and raced down to the lodge to help from 8-9am.  She even made some tips!

Maddie spent much of the week training in ping-pong in hopes of beating Papa this year.  Maybe next year Maddie.

Thanks for a great time Gramma Sue & Papa!

We celebrated my dad's birthday a few days early.  Kristi has better photos on her blog, you can see here.  But here are a couple from the night.

All the grandkids.

The perfect number of cousins for a pyramid.
