Wahshoes

Have you ever played Wahshoes??? Well, it's kind of like horseshoes with washers that you have to throw into a hole to earn a certain amount of points - to reach but not exceed 21. Here, Tara and Sierra take on the young boys - Matthew and Connor.

Oh -- it appears that the Mom's have won again! I don't think the Boys beat the Mom's all weekend!!!

Moose Videos

Both of these videos were taken right outside of the fence (as you can see) of the cabin --- literally 100 yards from where we sat and ate our dinner!!!

Moose for dinner guests at Schunk Lodge

This Mama moose and her older 'baby' joined us for dinner on Saturday night. We could see them both very clearly from the table where we all sat and ate. You can see Dave with the kids around the fire pit and the moose in the background.

Girls' Day in Billings

We took a trip to Billings with Tara, Ashton, and Adison to celebrate Ashton's 6th birthday!

Little bit of wax in your hair, Ella?
Meg and Ashton with their "headband braids."
Ella with her braids -- hers "hurt" because they were so tight! The gal even told us to get some Tylenol and give it to the girls so they wouldn't get headaches!!!
Ashton with Sylvie, her new leopard that she built at Build-a-Bear!!!

Girl Hike #1

We took our first Girl Hike of the year today -- we headed up to Story and had a picnic and then hiked around in different spots including up Piney Creek and Penrose Trail. The girls - and their Moms - thoroughly enjoyed being out in the "warm"(finally) weather.





S'mores.........




YUM!!! I think we're getting it mastered!!! I have decided that the chocolate has to be melted just a bit before it all goes together --- Meg and Ella enjoyed licking the chocolate from around the edges of the graham crackers!
