Way back in JUNE: We drove to Montana for a birthday party!

We had a busy, busy summer and now Luc is gone on a boat. So I can update the blog. Then summer will continue. So, let's go back to June....

It was Zora's second birthday. An event not to be missed. Amelia desperately wanted to go, so we relented. It is only 10 hours in the car. It should be fun. After all, there will be cake. Turns out, it was fun! Setting out on the road in the stylin' glasses. We stopped in cute town, MT and Amelia gave us a tour around town.



There is a great water park not far from their house. We rode over in Z's need red wagon. The girls came well prepared. Zora plunged head-long into the water fully clothed, while Amelia took the more prudent route of stripping down naked before running in.




Party time!


Then back in the car for another 10 hours. Did I mention that Amelia only slept for an hour in the car? She was too excited to sing, puzzle, read, and chat. We went to the library and got 5 CDs for the car ride. I think that helped. So did the train stop complete with 4 crazy kayakers launching into the overflowing MT rivers. They were really friendly and offered for Amelia to sit in their boats (before they launched). She was skeptical.
