We are in Montana right now having a blast with our chosen family. This is just a quick post with a few pictures of what we’ve been up to, a more detailed post will come on the heels of the California trip posts.

On our way through Kennewick, WA we stopped to have a picnic. We stayed and played on the swings for a few minutes.

Two heads are better than one.

Lily had a stinking blast playing xbox kinect with our friends Anthony and Maggie’s son Conrad.

After we got done swimming we ate pizza while KK finished making dresses so we could take them with us. She made them for her Granddaughter and Olivia, but it fit Lil so we borrowed them for the day.

I got the girls dressed after their bath and we went outside to take some pictures.

Olivia was all about the pictures, Lil was totally over it.

After the super fun swimming adventure we got home way too late to give sleepy girls a bath so that happened early the next morning.

I don’t have a lot to say about this series. I think it’s just super sweet how these girls are together and I had a lot of fun documenting it.

Last weekend we washed the car and Lil decided to do a little dance before we started.

I harvested garlic this week. I think there are around 24. Vampires beware.

We had lunch outside one day when it wasn’t tooooo hot to deal.

Apparently Lil spent a lot of time in her bathing suit this week.

Sprinkler play on Wednesday.

We went to the zoo on Sunday (still have to post pics from the last 3 trips I think) and Lil was so bummed because no butterflies landed on her. This has actually happened the last 2 times. So she was crazy pumped when this ladybug hung out with her while she was playing in the sprinkler.

More fun hair. I have wanted to braid her hair forever and was so happy that she finally let me and liked it.

We were headed out to get our hair trimmed on Tuesday, but Waldo was on a phone call so Lil didn’t get to kiss him goodbye. We took a picture for him.

This is part 2 in the yet unknown length series from our CA trip.

Just like last time we visited Lily and Olivia spent all of their car time with tablets and having a good time. It is also really nice that Lil still sits backwards so she and Olivia face each other and can talk easily.

After my Grandma’s funeral Waldo took these pictures of Lil and Olivia being silly.

I love how they are together. I grew up with lots of cousins that I was very close with. I sad for Lil that she doesn’t have that in her life all the time, but at least she gets it when we visit.

The next day while Olivia was at preschool our little Trio went to Walmart (Target was way too far to go right then, unfortunately) and stocked up on stuff to entertain these girls. Silly us, we didn’t really bring anything to play with so fixed that. Those toys were some of the best investments we’ve made in a while.

We took some of them everywhere with us to keep them busy.

Hungry Hippos at my Grandparents.

Tea party at my Dad’s.

Fishing at my Dads.

One day we decided to go swim at my Aunt KK’s. Man that was fun even though Waldo decided to take his phone for a swim. That part was no fun. Waldo put his phone in the pocket of the swim trunks he was borrowing and said to himself “wouldn’t it be funny if I forgot my phone in my pocket”. When he got outside I wasn’t ready to get in yet and the girls wanted to play so he did the Dad thing and jumped in with a big splash and started playing with Lil and Livi. A few minutes later he realized his Oops. Between playing with the kids in the pool; Waldo, myself and my Aunt tried different things to help save the phone. Spoiler: none of it worked and we went to the Verizon store the next day and upgraded Waldo, which turned into us switching phones and I got the upgraded new phone once we got home. I have the best husband.
