Montana Trip #3


  Everything Else We Did In Montana

We were in Montana for parts of 11 days in May and we were able to see a lot of people and do a lot of things.  Here is a snapshot of some of the things we did.

We made a trip to Glacier. 
We are completely surrounded by water :)

Jon, Chelsea, Dad, Ashlea, and Heidea were even
able to hike up to Avalanche Trail. 
We made it to the lake!  What a beautiful place!
We watched cousin Amber play soccer.  Gooooo Amber!
We had a fire... and of course we had s'mores 
And of course we had lots of opportunities to play games!
Thanks Brent for coming to play pinochle.
Some dominoes with the Reiner family.
And 8 handed Pinochle.  What is the Vaudt family game?
Pinochle!
We were able to worship at The Church of Creston
where we were married and where Grandpa is
the pastor.  
Mom Vaudt and her lovely sister Dena.
 
Jon thought it was hilarious that Chaco
loved drinking out of the bathtub facet. 

Some People We Saw...
Grandma and Grandpa Jan were able to make
it for Kailea's Graduation from Iowa.  
Grandpa Reiner's sister Norma came for a visit.  She lives in
North Dakota and Chelsea had not seen her in years.
It was a nice visit and Jon was happy to meet her for the first time.
Of course we were able spend some time with Meghan!
Chelsea and her good friend Ashley Harriot went on a hike up Lone Pine. 
It was also so fun to be able to see Katie Stewart and her son Logan!
They were also visiting from Oklahoma.

One last family shot.  We had such a great visit!






Montana Trip #2

Kailea's Graduation 

The second weekend that we spent in Montana was for another very important reason.  Kailea graduated from High School!  It was so fun to watch her cross the stage and get her diploma.  

The night before Kailea's graduation, Aunt Melanie made some
signs that we hung up outside her window after she had
gone to bed.  So fun!
