Randomness

We are well into the new school year and thus far it has been a smooth transition. Harrison is doing well being back at school full-time and it is not until the end of the week are we hearing the "ughs" of having another day to go. The weekends are filled with playing outdoors doing as much as we can while the weather is still nice...this morning the mountains to the South of us had their tops freshly dusted with snow - which had a certain little boy very giddy with anticipation of another winter on top of Bridger Bowl, riding Holy Gully & looking for "trolls' with his Papa...(he truly takes after his father!)

The first set of photos were taken on our friends, Kate & Scott's farm in Lewistown, MT. We went for the long Labor day weekend and had such a great time. 
This is Tumble Weed, he was such a sweet, old horse!
Eliza loving her horses!
This is Banjo, these two were more like dogs than horses...
Harrison had to bring his bb gun & targets, especially since we were going
to be in the middle of MT.
This little guy really is a good shot...hits a bulls-eye at lease 2:15 shots, not
too bad for a 4.5 yr. old.
Getting the aiming down - he does not want to be left behind next
year during hunting season!
Building a rock dam at the river
Pat learning to fly fish...
Our after-school ritual, hitting the track & jumps.

The last three shots were taken during Nick & Brittney's trip out to MT...
We are out at the Adam's playing in the creek.

thank you forty million times.
I understand Harrison is a "shooter"; well i think it the best to learn important facts early on, and it looks as if this
marvelous four year old is on the right track. Montana was invented for boys, and I love him and his parents right over the top of the sky.

Riding in the wind, playing in the water, enjoying the beautiful surroundings that are your home. Harrison, you are a lucky little boy, with an interest as large as the Big Sky Montana, sky itself. To be you and see it through your eyes would be a wish I would make.if I could. I love your damn (and maybe in your future you can help navigate all that water that starts in Montana and comes clear down to our state.) Love you and miss you terribly, but always happy to see these posts and know that one 41/2 year old is thriving!

Love,
GMJo and Hoppi
