best friends

So, this was my company today as I sat on the porch fixing my bike. They carried on talking and laughing.. eating ice cream and sitting for a good half an hour like nothing at all was silly about riding double on a toy donkey or the fact that they weren't even getting anywhere... just eating ice cream and enjoying life. O, to be a kid again.

B-17 Bomber

Paul and I went to the B-17 bomber that is at the airport for the weekend and were pleasantly surprised to see extended family there too!! It was an amazing thing to walk through this bomber and learn about the plane missions and imagine what it would be like to work in the tiny spaces in side the plane.

Happy Birthday Paul!

Paul is a very special man
If I'm having a bad day he'll do everything he can.
He's one of those guys that everyone loves
and he has no interest in ever owning doves.
Now guns on the other hand....
for one of those he would do a walking handstand, with a freehand,
while the other hand is petting his beloved dogs.
(he also hasn't any interest in ever owning frogs).
When I think about it, Paul is a very special man
and I love being married to him! (I hope he never needs a bedpan)

Good times at the cabin

WE LOVE THIS PLACE!!

Camping at McGregor Lake

No comment ;)

The great crawdad escapade

We are always driving BY this spot but never take the time to stop and enjoy it. This is coming into Polson from the south and I love the view with Flathead Lake and the pretty mountains. This was on my b'day when we lolly-gagged around the Polson/Ronan/Kalispell area looking for cool stuff for the house.

Got Home From Camping Last Spring........

This weekend, the Anderson-Stolte Compounders and the residential RV ers went to the Mcgregor Lake campground to enjoy two days of heat and camp food. (Oh, for those who are wondering, the Mosquitoe Blood Bank went quite well. I feel good knowing that because of my donation, mosquiotes can live a day longer. Visit www.mosquitoesdeservetolive.com ) Any way, the heat at the campground was unbearable, and the sun burns were many.(Is it just me, or do I smell burning skin?) The lake was beckoning to our roasted soals as we stared out of our hot huts. After much debate and burned skin diposal, we all went down to the dock. I wondered how cold it would be if I jumped.......Aunt Sarah and I considerd quietly who would be the first to endure the frigid waters. A moment of inspiration hit me just then, and I rememberd one of the cheesy songs I learned in choir this year. It was entitled "Somebody has To Be First". Hmmmmm. Ok then. I ran at full gallop to the end of the dock, and plunged into the water. Two words-BAD IDEA!!!!!I don't remember the feeling of the water, only that it was cold. You may get the idea of the extent of the damage done by the water when I say that a few minutes after the jump, May-Z commented on my amethyst lips. "Merebear! Your lips are purple! " YAY.
