Mother's Day in Montana

Lucas had a basketball game at 8am, so once he got home at 9:30, we hit the road.
We decided to take the kids to Montana
 But, Montana is huge, so - we took them to a small part of it.
 Montana is also, gorgeous!
 Bannock is about 2 hours and 15 minutes from us.
We stopped for lunch. It was a gorgeous day.

Juliet and Mason ate their chicken salad sammmies by the river.

 By the river was a teepee. 
The kids went in, this particular one was one you rent and sleep in instead of a tent!

 They decided, this was an important feature (the carpet) and thought we should try it next time we go camping. I said I'd think about it.

Once we were finished eating, we headed into Bannock State Park.
Which is famous for being a haunted ghost town.

 Most of the houses/buildings you were allowed to go into.
 Lucas in the saloon, pretending to slide a sasparilla.


 The kids really enjoyed themselves. It was interesting that the state park let you touch everything.


 One of the houses I pretended to be a ghost and Bridget ran out of there like a mad woman.

The school house/masonic temple was my favorite.


 Each house had a number and on the map there was information about each place.



We came home, had dinner, and then went to church in the morning. The kids really loved handing out all of the "things" they had made. They were all adorable. Scarlett wrote me a recipe for her favorite food. Ham - lots of it. Cooked at 10,000 degrees for 5 minutes. There was more, but that was my favorite. Haha.

Our annual mothers day picture.

 Mason ran away so Nathan grabbed him and we took a quick family picture. Haha.

A cute Mothers Day and a fun little day trip. Love these peeps so much!
