July Recap

We've had a great July - beautiful weather, visitors from WA, birthdays, barbeques, and family camp-outs to name just a few. We took some time off over the 4th of July to visit friends and family in WA, bouncing around the State for the first 7-days, visiting who we could, then spent the last 3-days at the Weber family camp-out on Blewett Pass. It was a busy trip and the kids and Mommy were good troopers. The 4th of July get-together at the Hinton's was fantastic... thanks for showing the kids how to make explosives.

Cousin Kate came to visit for about 5 days. Kate and Amy made a day trip up to Glacier, went antiquing, visited some of the fun sites close by like Ryan Island, and trekked around town window shopping. I got to play the "favorite" parent with the kids, taking them to the waterpark and on a bike ride.

We wrapped up the month with a Blue Angels air show here in town. It was clear and 90 some degrees but the kid's didn't mind so much after we bought a blowup Blue Angels jet... wish we'd got it at the BEGINNING of the show.
