Loading up to Move

 Harold loading the U-Haul truck - April 3rd, 2014.

 Side view - we have too much 'stuff'!

 Whole truck - thankfully the missionaries came over and did some compassionate service loading the heaviest things for us.  Glad I fed them so many dinners.

 Stan driving the U-Haul, Julie driving their car, next I was driving our car, last was Dad in our truck.

Quite the convoy!!  We had sun, rain, snow all on the way to Idaho...a little sad to leave Montana - but excited for Idaho also.

Deer on the Lawn

We are going to miss looking our our front windows and seeing the deer eating on the lawn across the street!  Wild deer roam this town like dogs do in other towns - love it!  You have to wait for a deer to cross main street sometimes - course they were here first - or their ancestors were!

Sam's quilt

This is Sam's quilt for his 30th birthday - more than a month late!  Most were his old tee shirts - Wet Your Waders, Respect the Rock - it was really fun to make and he likes it!!

Primary Pioneers

 Here is the Lewistown Ward Primary with the Pioneer bandana's for boys and sunbonnets for girls - cute!

 It was really fun to make these and the Primary kids were really excited about them.

One little girl wanted a pink one and the next day I happened to drive by her house as she was getting home from school and she had her bonnet on!!

Charlie Russell Museum Great Falls Montana

 This is part of the Browning Gun Collection at the Charlie Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana - awesome old guns and pistols and this is about half of them.

 The blue frame house is the Russells in Great Falls - they moved there in 1900.  Next to it the log cabin was built for an art studio, in 1903.  Most of the painting he did after 1903 were done here.

 The governor commissioned a painting for the State Capitol and Charlie had to raise the roof two logs to make the ceiling high enough to paint the large canvas.

 Handsome Harold at the museum gift store.

They have a great interactive area for kids to climb into the teepee and feel the buffalo robes, etc.  Dad wanted this picture so you would all know we are really losing our minds!  It was fun!!

snowy march II

 As the snow melts it looks like tiny clothes on the clothes line!

Our neighbors garage - cornice with ice cycles hanging from it!

Snowy March

 We woke up to this beautiful snowstorm - at least I said it was beautiful and Dad said - yes if it was December!  Notice the snow on the clothes lines and the chain link fence!

 Tree in our front yard - so pretty.

 Neighbors pine tree.

Pretty scene across the street at the hospital - it should get up to 40 degrees today - it is 15 right now - so all this snow should melt...I'll enjoy it while I can.
