Four Weeks 'Til School Starts!

I had a realization yesterday that there are only four weeks of real "summer" time left!  

Lilly will shortly be in a fourth grade classroom and Tyson is starting Little Star Preschool this year!  

We have had an amazing summer so far and there is still more to come!

For the first time, my dad, step mom, Maria and little sister, Anabelle were able to 

come to Montana for a visit.  It was fun to see them in our neck of the woods!  

We went to Glacier National Park, the Bison Range and just hung out.

They were able to show them some of Plains, we ate at the Circle diner, where I used to work, we went to the Fly In, and my dad even said Plains was bigger than he thought it would be!  Funny!

After the Lawson's left Plains, we had a long weekend trip to Seattle to visit our beloved friends and King family!  Uncle John hosted another great family bar-b-que 

with the best fruit salad I have ever eaten!  

My brother sported an amazing Fedora & was so sweet and funny!  

Auntie Betsy was up from Phoenix and had fun making a sling-shot with Ty-Ty while 

Lilly showed Uncie John how to play a fun online game!  He now has a gambling addiction!  

We had a great time visiting with everyone, I miss my family and love when we get to reconnect!

We also spent long over-due time with my best girl friends and their kiddos.  

We were able to finally meet and snuggle with baby Jakson!  We love him so much!

We went with Janna and her three little ladies to Remlinger Farms for a day of kiddy-fun but no pie!  

(We bought one later with Uncle John and it was AMAZING!!!)

We loved our trip!  It had been too long between visits.

We have gone to the beach here in town, Splash Montana water park in Missoula, Lilly and Tyson had their annual Lemonade stand and I still have a couple more fun things up my sleeve before the 

summer comes to an end.  Oh ya, and those great Montana thunder storms gave us this lovely rainbow!

Tyson digs them as much as I do, we run to the window to watch the storms roll in and then out, 

we get all excited and Kevin thinks we are goofy!
