A visit from the kiddos!!

May was a busy month! A fun visit from Tony, Debbie & boys which included a weekend camping trip to Mt Rushmore, a move into another house (to be blogged next), and a quick visit with Mike & Nicole on Memorial Day weekend. Here's pics of some of the adventure:Mike & Nicole escaping Rexburg for a quick visit to Billings. Our visit included a hike around Phipps Ranch a popular but challenging FOLF course. It's on one of the Rims near Billings and even tho we didn't play FOLF there, it was quite a hike. They helped us do the final moving, and we even found time to do a quaint little picnic on the river front thanks to Dairy Queen just before they had to take off again.
Ryan exploring the kitchen cabinets...a favorite...open shut them...open shut them... A trip to the Picture-o-graphs near Billings. Max discovering the echo and the pictures & of course the rocks.
We went with a cute family in our Ward. Debbie & Chantel were talking like old friends in no time.
A neat pictures of two moms enjoying a nice little outing, adapting lunch with 2 babes. (Grandma's out discovering spiders (eek) with Max and new friends.)
A BIG BIRTHDAY BOY HELLO!! A whole 1 year old already...Ryan

Ryan discovering his cupcake and Max discovering the loot.

Tony catching the moment on Kodak.

J & Doug hanging around for the ice-cream.

Sadie dog wondering if this treasure is something to eat.

Grandma can you be anymore slower getting this thing opened. Check out the concentration on all faces.

Max deciding to help to hurry things up. Sadie Dog realizing it's not food loses interest.

Thats my builder! More bristle blocks to enjoy and create with.

The KOA cabin near Mt. Rushmore. Grandpa and his boys enjoy a nice swing on the porch. A most favorite thing for Grandpa. He even invited me to swing with him once.
Road trip...we were able to rent a vehicle big enough for all of us to take one car to Mt Rushmore. We were filled to the brim, but enjoyed being close together.

A favorite while visiting us in Billings was a place to jump, play & explore Nama & Dampa's bed. Here's Ryan discovering himself.
Here's Max who also discovered my old girls camp camping hat.
Max was such a trooper helping us move stuff. His reply when asked to help was..."Sure ...no prob-em!"

As we moved stuff Max made a hide out in an empty cupboard. He'd climb in and then call for Ryan to find him. Since Ryan was such a good cupboard opener..many times he'd be successful in finding his older brother. After they left and we were in doing the final move I discovered a little stash of toys tucked away in the cupboard where Max & Ryan played. Needless to say it was a great adventure!!
