catching up

I won't be able to catch you up on all our summer adventures, but I'll try a few. Among others, we've had a two-week family reunion, a three-week vacation in Montana, and two camping trips so far. To start, here are some highlights from Montana.

Playing by the river while Papa's fly-fishing

"Oh wait, are you taking our picture now?"

 "Ok, we're ready. Go ahead." 

Natural hot springs. And this guy.

Bear wasn't too sure at first. 

But she warmed up (pun intended) to it pretty quickly.

Nothing to say about this one really.

We only camped one night instead of the three we had planned. It rained constantly and freezing. We spent the whole time trying to keep the baby warm. Luckily, it was our first trip in our 8-person tent mansion, so we had lots of space to hide and play. 

Oh yeah, Pal! Oh, he's such a good boy. Still our baby despite taking a back seat to the bear.

Sitting by the campfire mid-day with an umbrella. Good times.

Of course, this little bean kept us entertained and in good spirits despite the cold. 

Weeeeeee!
