Glacier National Park

OK, no pics yet but I just wanted to let you know that we are in Glacier National Park, in Montana. We are having a great time. Today we are hanging out we've watched Golden Compass (yes, I know anti-Christ) and Spiderwick Chronicles (I absolutely LOVED). The kids are at the park as I am about to go to the laundromat!! Aren't vacations great!! Yesterday we saw some amazing creations! It's a taste of Alaska (my home) here and I have been reveling!!! As we were coming out of the visitors center yesterday we couldn't figure out why everyone was so enamored by our Chevy Venture van? It's 7 years old, nothing special? It wasn't our van, sillies...it was a Big Horn Sheep!! Licking the salt off the pavement right behind our van! WE followed it around the parking lot for a while, it blatted at us a couple times. We took a lot of pics (which I have no way of posting yet) and we loved every minute. We also saw a coyote, that Lance COULDN'T get a couple pops off at!!! Lucky coyote in a National Park. The best part of the day was standing a few feet away from Rocky Mountain Goats as they licked the salt off the rocks. Some were on a cliff and others were right beside us licking the ground. I got some adorable pics of the babies!!! I know you probably aren't even reading this anymore since it goes on forever. I love all of you, thanks for stopping by~Lori PS Did I invite everyone the right way this time? Let me know!

Happy Birthday Rider!


Happy #2 Birthday Rider! He was born 2 weeks early by C-Section and still managed to come in at 9 pounds! He had to go to the NICU because he had tons of fluid in his lungs and complications with that. He was there for 5 days and I thought I was going to lose it! Yes, I'm a baby for my babies!!
He's still growing fast, and time isn't slowing down at all! He loves Spongebob and teasing everyone!He LOVES his Daddy and everything he does! He says "UmUm" for delicious foods
that he wants, and our favorite is a big "Hehwowe!" he gives for Hello! Happy Birthday Rider!

Our Home for a While!


This is our infamous RV! We will be taking a trek towards Ohio starting sometime in June. I say sometime because it's not all figured out yet! We have started breaking in the o'l "Mallard" by taking it fishing and such where we collect the local Crawdad and hope to bring a fish or two! We will have to check out all the Country Clubs around, now that we are soooo classy!!! We are planning on going to Yellowstone, Glacier National Park, Martin's Cove, Mt. Rushmore.... If you have any great places that we would want to see besides those, let us know, we are getting the list going!! We were going to leave on the 10th of June, but now Ohio needs Lance to come out and certify for a central line class, and that will cut into the vacation, so we are reconfiguring plans. Just thought I would let you in on a few great pics of the o'l beast!

There's a Doctor in the House!






A lot of exciting events have come our way! Lance has officially graduated from Med School! Fisher has graduated from Preschool, Lance Albern, Shylee, and Hunter participated and "Rocked" Track & Field Day at school. Lance has a Best Buddy from school-that's Matt Andres, one of the Greatest Friends out there!! Graduation took place in Las Vegas indoors, thankfully, at 109 degrees that was a scorcher! Of course, the fan in our van decided to go out! Our van stinks like 8 people worth of sweating!!!! Fisher will be repeating preschool next year, I guess he will be on his Masters Degree? We will be moving June 10th in our 1989 38foot motor home! Going on a vacation trek towards home that will include National Parks and Church History! I'll keep you updated on that! Thanks for visiting, friends and family! I love and thank all of you for your support and consistent pursuance with the words "Now when will you be finished with Med School?" My answer now "Last Sunday" Now it will be residency!!!

Hunter's 10th Birthday!


We went up by Hole in the Rock to the dinosaur tracks and Partyed! We harassed some local tumbleweed and climbed around on the beautiful rock formations! We brought our puppy "Moqui" for her first excursion. All in all it went off without a hitch! We cooked, out opened presents, did the cake and ice cream, and Hunter was pretty a pretty darn Happy Birthday Boy!!! How do I get my slide show to show up? AHHHH!
