Our summer fun continues in Montana. We spent 3 weeks in Billings with my parents and a couple of days in Bozeman with my sister, Lyndsay. We were lucky because Madisen and Emily were able to spend extra time with us while we were visiting my parents. Unlike Arizona, the July weather was perfect! 
We enjoyed several of the city parks.
Miah loved playing with Grandma and Grandpa's dog, Meggie!
We were all amazed that Miah (only 2 years old) could tool all over the yard in the four-wheeler. She was so proud of the fact that she could drive by herself! Crazy!!!
We were there for the early stages of the garden. Grandpa puts a lot of love and energy into the garden. They even picked up tools that were just right for Ian and Miah to help out.
We played at the water park in Billings. Madisen and Emily helped Ian carry the gigantic tube up several flights of stairs. It was kind of funny watching them...I kept waiting for a gust of wind to blow them over. It was such a fun day.
There's nothing better than home-made, hand cranked ice cream. Delicious!!!!
Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Buckner drove all the way from Iowa

You can see the incredible growth that the garden has made over the duration of our trip. When I was a kid, my sister and I called this slave labor. However, they had a blast and were so sad to leave Grandma and Grandpa's house.
My parents found this fun pirate swimming pool for the kids to play with. They loved hooking the hose up to the steering wheel and spraying each other. We sure loved the big...green....grassy yard!
After a long day of play, it was fun to relax....or something like that, in the hot tub.
We had lots of movie nights with popcorn and pillows.
It was fun just being together!
Emily was feeling brave. Miah had it all under control.
The kids have a big suitcase full of dress up costumes.

They spend a good hour of each day in disguise.
Emily and Ian put on a puppet show.
Aunt Lyndsay and Madisen were part of the audience and Miah was in charge of sound operations.
We sure love our cousins!

It's good to be home!

Those pictures are darling, Kristy! How fun to be home with your family. There's nothing better. I think it's so cool that Ian and Miah have such a great time with their cousins. I wish I would have known mine better growing up. That pool your parents bought for them looked awesome--and the same goes for that garden!
