Fairmont 2013

Well it was that time of year again- to make our long trek up to Montana to spend Labor Day weekend at Fairmont Hot Springs.  We sure love it up there.  We didn't get too many pictures because were too busy having fun!
We went swimming (ofcourse) and  this was Mason's 2nd time swimming.  He fell asleep in the pool and so we put him in his carseat on the deck of pool.  He almost took a 5 hour nap he was so relaxed from the warm water.  The rest of us went down the hydrotube slide a bunch of times.  Lily loved it and that is all she wanted to do.  Avery was excited that he could go down it all by himself (he is getting so brave).  Avery also loved diving for things in the shallow water that is just the right height for him.
We also went looking for golf balls, our yearly tradition.  We hit the jackpot in part of the dried up pond.  The kids refer to it as being like an "Easter Egg Hunt."  We have so many golf balls we don't know what to do with them!
We were able to go over to Twin Bridges where Brian's mom's family is all from.  We went to church there and had dinner afterwards with Brian's Aunts, Uncles, & cousins.  It was so much fun to spend time with them!  Avery got to sit on a horse on the way out and can't wait to really ride it the next time we go up there.
We also played some games and just had a great time relaxing and enjoying everyone's company.  Brian did some golfing and mountain bike riding (just a short run).  It was so pretty up there and the weather was so perfect (not too cold and not too hot)!


this is how excited Avery was- he asked us a million times if we were in Montana yet
