Some Love for the Dogs

It's been a while since I had a post about the dogs so here we go. Whenever we leave the house or town this is what Baloo does.  
 
 
And this is what Bella does.

Busy Weekend

We bought our house about two and a half years ago. We got it with the intent of fixing it up and moving in. Years later we're still working on it. I'm currently in the middle of painting the cabinets (I'm very picky and won't let Ryan help with painting).  Stevie has been a huge motivator and a big help. We are abt halfway through with painting the cabinets. All the uppers are painted but we're still working on hanging all the doors. The drill battery died yesterday and the backup battery was also dead so that halted us quite a bit.
 
 
Friday and Saturday was appliance delivery day!!  Here's a pic of Cole helping us clean out the old fridge. It moved to the garage and has been designated the beverage fridge which has done wonders for space in the kitchen fridge!  More pics to come!
 
 

Pitch Perfect

Cole's FAVORITE movie is Pitch Perfect!  He loves all the music and dances and sings along. We had recorded it on our dvr, but it messed up and kept skipping parts. We finally just bought it and now we are averaging watching it about once a day.

Baseball Game

We got tickets to the local baseball game on Labor Day. I'm a big fan of any Stadium food and it's good to see Cole is inheriting that gene. Here he is enjoying a very stale pretzel.
 
 
And here he is being a cool dude with Dad. 
 
 
Aren't they a vision in plaid!

Trip to MT: Part 2

Unfortunately we were only up North for a few days so we didn't get to do everything we would've liked to. We were able to stop for a little bit in miles city to get in some quality time with some babies. Here's Cole and Bentley. They are very close in age and it was very neat to see them play together.
 
 
 
 We also got to meet the twins Jaidynn & Madison. Such cuties. And Jaycee if you're reading this I apologize I cannot remember who is who!

Trip to MT: Part 1

Several weeks ago we headed up to Montana for the Annual Fishin. For The Cure tournament. We booked a 'cabin' months ago at Rock Creek Marina on Fort Peck Lake so this trip had been planned for quite a while. I was looking forward to a relaxing weekend in a 'cabin' on the lake. Cabin is in quotes bc apparently my definition of a cabin differs from Ryan's. These were not cabins, it was a 15' x 15' room with two beds, a table, a fridge and a microwave. Notice: no toilet, no shower. There was a public bathroom area with toilets and showers, but this is not what I had been envisioning when we planned our vacation.
Since the tourney was founded by a high school classmate of Ryan's (who passed away about 2 years ago) Ryan knew a good number of people staying in the 'cabins' and the entire marina area. We stayed in a 'cabin' right next to our friends Chelsea, Mike and their new baby Penelope. They have a boat and we partnered with them for the tourney. Cole got to experience his first boat ride and fishing expedition. He had fun!
Here's some pictures we snapped on the drive back to Billings.  It really is a very beautiful part of the world.
