Montana Part 2

KLP and klp shooting hoops in the shop.....Kory's "home court"



Chief and qsp playing bball.  


and Q goes for the slam dunk! 



qsp got a ride after the bball....I guess he was just too tired to walk.  



This was klp's bathtub of choice one night.  He LOVED it.  The spray thing is like his dream come true! 


Of course we celebrated the night of the 4th.  We usually go into town to watch the fireworks, but this year we opted for our own show, compliments of Uncle Tye the setter--offer.  We put qsp and Hayven to bed and the "big kids" got to enjoy the show.  Of course we love America on the 4th, but we celebrate our own PHILLIPS PHAMILY INDEPENDENCE day too!!!  4 years ago we brought our baby home!!  WOW!!  What a day, what a road to get there, and what a road it has been for the last 4 years.  We are so thankful for that day and for the people that got us there.  And in so many ways, its taken EVEN more to get us to where we are today.  We are mindful of GOD's faithfulness and for our faithful, dedicated, friends and family.  






Gram, Sayler, Chief, and Kory watching the show!  















One day, KLP's grandparents came out to visit. It was fun to see them.  Here is Great Grandpa Bob feeding q some watermelon.  



I found these dog purses on clearance right before our trip.  SOOOOOO I HAD to buy them for Sayler and Hayven.......


I think they liked them...
But it's safe to say that Quinn LOVED them! He wanted to carry them around all the time.  


Sayler , klp, and qsp 

 

klp liked the dogs too....sheesh, maybe I should've gotten my BOYS one too!:)  Sayler was reading to Kanyon.  She is such a good little reader and so sweet to always read to Kanyon (even if he is a little distracted by the froo froo dog purse) 


At some point in the week, klp picked up on the "CHEEEESE!" thing when he's taking a picture.  It made for quite an interesting "smile" from him.  



I mean really??!! Could little Quinn be any more pleased than he is right here with his dog purse?! btw he said "CHEESE!"  but he's never done it again since. This is borderline sing song face here (for all my ACU readers)!

All 4 Phillips kids in the car together headed to town.  



We went in to a friend of the Phillips place to see their baby animals.  They had some lambs and also some tiny cute 3 day old piglets! :)   



They also have a cool little creek running through their yard so that was way fun......

klp was in HEAVEN!!!


After a rigorous time playing in the creek, he had to lay down and rest in the hammock while the creek ran peacefully behind him.  Ahhhhh the life!


Our afternoon ritual was to go swimming.  Fun time with cousins! 


Still more to come!!
