Tripping.

No, not falling on our face but tripping through Montana!  We are having a wonderful R & R and have figured out some perfect ways to travel with kids!  We are staying at a FANSTASTIC B&B with a huge side yard.  It has a tire swing, fish pond, pool table, croquet set and a beautiful front porch.  The kids have a small little room off of our room and have been sleeping for almost 12 hours right now.  From our bed last night I was able to watch the sunset over the mountains - really!  At this moment, I have been reading and drinking coffee while the little ones are still sawing logs.

Our trip started with a bit of a snafoo - actually quite indicative of our life I'm embarassed to say.  We arrived at the airport to leave on Sunday, only to find that our reservation was for Saturday.  Oops!  We had a brief overnight in Traverse City where the kids had a fabulous time in the hotel  pool, we had a lovely dinner at an Italian restaurant and the very accommodating airlines got us on a very early Sunday morning flight where we arrived in Bozeman by 10:30am.  We grabbed lunch with the bride and got our wiggles out a park that had a playground and a little river running through it and hopped in the car for our three hour drive through the mountains to Missoula.  Once we arrived we settled into our room and headed out for dinner.  We had a wonderful dinner with lots of veggies, strolled through town to get our bearings and then everyone collapsed into bed and called it a day.

Today we're going for a hike (per Amelia's request) and to play in the river.  Pictures to come!
