My Excited Inner Child
I have to admit I am enjoying the stay-at-home-mom life. Liam is at such a fun, exciting age. I have never found anything remotely exciting about ‘big trucks’ and ‘yellow school bus’es. Yet now I find myself pointing at every big truck and listening to him describe them to me. Or we pass a school […]
Tractors and Coffee
Liam and I have been keeping very busy here lately. On Monday, we started with a short to-do list Matt had already made for me – get our new license plate. Sounds simple, right? But nothing government related is that easy. I got to the courthouse at 8:00. That was the first confusing thing to […]
Home, Home on the Range…
…where the deer and the antelope play! Well, the deer at least. We haven’t seen any antelope. And truthfully I just had to google antelope to see exactly what it is. It looks to me to be a deer with horns. But if you want to get real particular it’s “a member of a number […]
Snow Won’t Stop Me…Now
If you wait for the perfect conditions, you’ll never go. Everyone has some type of fear. And I have a few strong ones. I do not like being lost (or feeling lost). Just today, I was driving around in a neighborhood to see if there were any houses for sale and I noticed that the GPS […]
I’m NOT Dreaming of a White Christmas
December 25, 2010. My first, true, white Christmas. (Although my parents may correct me. There may have been one when I lived in St. Louis as a kid). It was gorgeous. Snow flakes coming down. Side streets completely white. Everyone dreams of a white Christmas – or at least we are convincing when we sing […]
From 0 to 80…degrees
The day after I got to Montana the temperature was completely in the negatives, with the low being -25. So imagine my surprise when I saw A LOT of bathing suits at Target. I assumed it was for all the snowbirds who head to warmer places in the winter. Now I’m a sucker for a Target […]
Out and About
Liam and I got to spend the weekend with Matt for the first time in four weeks! On Saturday we decided to go to the Museum of the Rockies. This is one of the “big” things to do in Bozeman. It has a nice children’s play area upstairs so I know Liam and I will […]
No walk in the park.
Snowballs soaring through the air. Snowmen with their cute button noses. Kids giggling. Hot chocolate in my hand while Liam and Tippet frolic. That is NOT how our first outing in the Bozeman snow went. In fact, it was quite opposite. Liam is so excited about all the snow. He just keeps saying “No! No!” […]
What’s that number?
34, 31, 33, 33, 32, 37, 37, 30, 21, 18 What are those numbers? Those are the HIGHS for the next ten days in Bozeman. Did you catch the last two numbers?! Is your heart racing a bit fast like mine when I saw those numbers? I bet I can make it beat faster. 24, 11, […]
And the verdict is…
…we’re moving to Montana! What will that make us? Montananites? Montanaians? I have no idea. I’ve yet to be able to utter the words “We’re moving to Montana” except to Matt and I think I literally only said it once. Saying it out loud makes it so real. All the worries that come with this […]
