Super Bowl!

So I'm kinda of a fan of football and I happen to really enjoy watching the Super Bowl. It's not even necessarily about the football. I love the commercials and the snacks and the hanging out with family thing. All that means I'm kind of excited for today's game. It should be a good time and maybe I'll win something in the little Super Bowl pool. Probably not though, I never win. Oh well I'm off to shower so I can go to the party here shortly. :D Go Steelers!

Family Reunion

So my mom's side of the family had a little reunion get together up the canyon at my great aunt's cabin. The river runs right next to their cabin so we go tubing down the river when we have anything at the cabin. So it started out nice and kinda mellow just lazily floating down the river. Then I ran into a tree and popped my tube. Luckily we had a little kid who could ride with his dad so we just towed the tube I was on. We had some family camping about halfway down our trip, my cousin and her little baby (almost 2) got out and that gave us an extra tube which was good. So then we got going on the harder part of the river which I didn't really realize was the harder part. I guess I was just expecting more of the same and well the first big section of rocks knocked me out of my tube. I went down the rocks holding my tube in one hand and got beat up by rocks the whole way down. Luckily I didn't hit my head or anything and my uncle was there at the bottom to grab my tube so I could settle down and get back on it. That didn't last for long though me on my tube. Another section of rocks that beat up my arms and legs but missed my head. Then there was a spot where I could stop and catch my breath and out on the road my cousin had stopped which gave me the great chance to climb out and quit right there which I did. Over all it was fun but I don't think I'll be jumping in to do it again anytime soon. Oh I tried to get a picture of my bruises but apparently I'm too pale you can't see the purple at all on the camera.

Sleep would be nice...

I'm sitting here in my hotel room thinking I should get up and get ready for bed but it so much effort and sitting here feels so nice. So I thought I would write a little blog about my visit to Montana so far.

I think the main thing I've gathered from this trip is it's a nice place to visit but I sure as hell wouldn't want to live here. I think I'm much more of a big city girl at heart, despite the fact that I come from the country. I guess I just like places with a little more going on you know movies and malls and art galleries and restaurants and such. I do love the lakes though I wish there were more lakes down home because it makes for beautiful drives.

Spending time with the family has been nice I don't get to see the Montana part of the family very often so getting to sit and chat with them is a nice change of pace. I think I'm almost ready for the trip home though. It's been a long couple of days lots of driving and eating bbq. Well I think thats it for now I'm sure I might have more to say after we've had a bit more of the trip.

Babysitting

So today I went and baby sat the super adorable Bridget Waldron so her parents could have a little alone time. It was fun she is one of the cutest little babies in the world and she likes me who doesn't I mean really. I'm totally the coolest. So we had a great time playing and laughing for about an hour and a half then she got a little fussy so I laid her in her swing and she cried for a few minutes then took a nap. It was after she woke up from her short nap that things weren't so great. See she was hungry but wanted mommy not the bottle I had for her so nothing I was doing was making much of a difference. It was okay overall though cause like I said she is super adorable. As soon as her parents got home she was much better and I stayed and had a nice dinner with them. Then I stayed and sat on the couch with them for a few hours and we watched some home renovation shows all in all a pretty productive Saturday for me.
