Damselflies

A little damselfly love!

A little catching up...

Here are some pictures from the past week.  We have been having  lot of fun; Clint is on overnights though, so that can be challenging.  We end up having some extra fun with Grandma, and just doing random things to stay out of the house and let him sleep. 

Dane and Kimber are working on their dumptruck

Clint and Dane made a trip to Holter one day that I had to work.  They had a wonderful time and got some good father/son bonding.

Here is a beautiful bald eagle that they saw.

It's a walleye!

Rainbow trout

They got to see a helicopter delivering some power poles. 

Grandma and the kids at Ryan Dam last weekend.

This doesn't put you on edge at all!

Lovin' the suspension bridge!

This morning we went out to a little creek and Clint/Dane caught some nice brown trout...

and Clint stalked the wily carp through the marsh grass!

A picture is worth a thousand words! (I may be in trouble for this!!!)

Here are some pictures from our fourth of July celebration with the Scotts!  It was super fun!  

How do I look???

RUN!!!  She's gonna blow!!!  (Little does Kimber know, it was only a smoke bomb!)

So, here is where it gets really funny! (and the part that I might get scolded for!!!) Clint and Noah took the kid's "green machines" and had some fun...  in this case a picture is worth a thousand words!!!  I can't believe I actually got any pictures...  I was laughing SO HARD!

 Then it was Noah's turn!!!

 Dane thought he would give him a little push!!!

Kimber even got a ride!

The computer is not working well with me lately!!!

This is the third time I have uploaded these pictures, and I was only able to get a few.  Oh well, I will keep working on it and should have a couple more updates in the next few days! 

With it being so hot, the whole family has been into water play!!!  Even Shep!  Before we got a little pool, the children were super resourceful and turned the lid for the sandbox upside down and filled it with water! 

 Shep says that Kimber smells funny!

 Brock and Clint took a float trip in the boat down the Missouri a couple weeks ago and had a great time!  I dropped them off one morning and then Carrie picked them up at a different spot down the River the following night.  They caught some fish and had a great time.  There were a lot of caddis flies (sp?) which don't bite or anything...  they are just a bit of a nuisance. 

Lots of bugs...

Brock landed a nice walleye!

Then on the fourth we went to a friends house for fireworks and fun.  I only got this one picture, though, so you will have to watch for the next update.  Some of the pictures are pretty darn funny!

Surprise... we went fishing last weekend!

We made it out on Holter twice and then fished lower on the Missouri one day...  I don't have a lot of time to write, but I wanted to share these pictures!

Slippery little sucker!

Look at my worm!

Does it look good on my nose????

 We did get a new camera with an awesome zoom!  Here are a couple Golden Eagles that we were able to take some pictures of!

 One night we were actually out on the Lake pretty late.  As you can see, we had an amazing view while returning to the boat launch!

A nice visit with Dad and Marsha

This morning Dad and I got up this morning and went to York, Montana for the Angry Trout Trail run.  Here we are after we were done.

 Then we came home, loaded up and went fishing.  Clint quickly showed his fishing ability by hooking this monster walleye. 

Gramps and the awesome walleye that he caught!  He actually caught more fish than all of us!

Marsha and Kimber looking good!
