Birthday week in Montana

We had a fun couple of weeks over here as we celebrated 3 birthdays. The first was Julia's birthday sledding party. Steven & Grace had the perfect sledding hill picked out, right outside of Glacier National Park. The next party was for Ravenna's birthday. We had a swim party for her at The Wave in Whitefish. The last party was for little Riley May at Mel & OB's house. It was a busy end of January with all these birthdays. We had a great time at each event & so did the kids. We love having this extended family over here & being able to see them so often.

Beautiful Glacier National Park in the winter & the wall tent Steven & Rich set up.
Nana & Papa were in town over Ravenna's birthday. We are so lucky they come over this way often.

Look who's 4 years old.

Our little Ravenna, "Boo", little one, RK Mei, "venna". How thankful we are each day to have her in our lives. We are so fortunate & thankful for the day she made us parents back on December 11th, 2006, our "gotcha day". We will forever be grateful to her birth mother for making her decision which ultimately led us to our sweet daughter. Happy 4th birthday Ravenna...we love you so.

Swimming with daddy & Hudson.

Everyone in the pool, except mommy who was busy documenting.

Make a wish!
