Weeks of New Things.

This past week was Andy's birthday. He is a strange one. He gets so tickled and pleased when he solves a physics problem. I have no idea what he is babbling or complaining about, but I'm happy for his success when he solves that big problem. I'll stick to dying his hair and making him cakes to make him happy.

This is a new project that I will report more about soon. This is the first step and it will be grand.

A few weeks ago Reesha and I went to an Indian Vegiterian Feast! What a Feast it was!

My tummy!

There are lots of handbags being made at work. Sometimes the thread shows it's love. It's appreciated.

The corner store is swimming in Whole Milk.
2% is starting to taste a bit skimpy.
It's hard to switch back to East Coast milk after a summer of Fresh Cold Montana Milk!

Ive had so many good opportunity's for dressing up lately. I don't remember where I was going here. But I felt good about it. :)

Labor Day

Today I went on a bike ride with Genell round the Kelly Drive Loop. It was a nice overcast cool day, but man was I saddle sore! I need to ride my bike a bit more. The 15 mile ride was a bit longer than the 4 miles I ride every day. So new goal is to take longer rides, and maybe wear my bike shorts!
Andy and I are starting the countdown to our wedding. We decided to make a paper chain to count down the days. I like to call it our "Love Chain" So I cut 2" paper strips and we were ready to start.
Andy labeled each day with the date and with how many days till the wedding. I stapled.


Then we collected the chain in a very large pile! There were over 300 days/chains to make. It is now hanging up in our bedroom. It circles the room 1 1/2 times. The count down has started! I'll spare you the details until it's actually relevant.

Fun with Friends

Kait Calli and I were up to no good back on all girls grounds crew. Kari at Lake Koocanusa on a lunch break from kayaking.
Ted watching the campers swim. Matt always dove in!

Lyndon and I ran the Mission Mountian Classic today.

Lyndons time: 22:31

My time: 30:41

Goal for next year: Better than that.

Bear Dog

I was going through some old photos at home and found some of my dog Bear. He was such a handsome boy.I Love his smile in this one.

This was at my brother Erick's 2nd birthday party. It was a circus theme. Bear Jumped over a yard stick that was 6 inches off the ground. Good boy.
What a fluff...he needs a hair cut!

Grounds Crewin it up.

I put together a few benches that were already cut. I also gave them all a nice oil coating.

I named two of the benches after Reesha and Jackie.

They are sitting on the courts watching the kids play and gather for meals. A fine place for any bench to sit.

This week was Brad Abbott's 50th birthday! He's one of the camp directors and has been there for as long as I can remember anyway... This photo was a few weeks ago when a scuba diving pastor took Brad out. Brad's so excited!

This past week I was stung by a Wasp. So I spent the rest of my week killing them! With Bee traps and cans of spray. It's a rough world out there!

I also got to install the new diving board and have the first Jump off it. So satisfying. I was waiting for 3 weeks to do that project. So happy!

I also started the camp fires...with NO lighter fluid. Totaly lagit.

Next week I'm going rock climbing with this one: We were on Grounds Crew together a while ago and we got into some mischief then... I wonder what we will do this week....

More on Anna's Wedding

The Food was in their best outfits! How cute and tasty!

Youve given me a lot to ponder...

Andy always wears his bowling shoes to weddings...they are his dancin' shoes.

Although we didn't do much dancing.
Cousin Kate!

For the Time Being.

It rained all day in Ronan yesterday. I'm not sure what it was doing at camp.
This past weekend I went to Bozemen to a Andy's cousin Anna's wedding tree planting and reception. It was nice to see the family. Anna and Steve had a lovely party. Me, Andy, Steve, Anna, Kate and Adam.
There was also a bouncy house! It was AWESOME! also hard to keep your dress down when you fell. Poor Kate had to keep her strapless dress in check the entire bounce!



We also got to spend some time in Bozemen at the Museum of the Rockies! So many dinosaurs! I will have more photos when I get a chance later. this is all I have for now.
