The morning after Lydie’s hospital stay, we hit the road to Montana! I will admit, I don’t think I was mentally prepared for our nine hour drive! 😬 Travel Day It kind of felt like one thing after another. As we were driving, we noticed something was scraping on the bottom of the car and …
Our final stop on our trip proved to be a favorite. In my mind, before our trip, I envisioned this stop as being a quickie. We would drive around a little, get our “stamp”, and then be on our way. It was such a pleasant surprise though! We woke up in Billings and, after having …

Two days in Glacier just isn’t long enough. We loved this place so much and as we were leaving we were already planning all of the things we would want to do if we came again. Because we were a little surprised by the crowds the first day, we wanted to make sure we hit …

Our family vacations are a HIGHLIGHT of our year! And we experienced such a wonderful time together as a family. This year has been filled with changed or cancelled plans for everyone, including us, and it was a little miracle that this trip happened. Our original plan for our vacation was to go to New …
