On July 25th I packed up my bags and headed out to see my fabulous Aunt Emily, Uncle Brad and their crazy 6 boys. Leaving my Mom and the rest of my family was really hard, but after saying my sad goodbyes, I was off.
My plane landed in Bozemen, Montana later that day. Here Aunt Sharron picked us up. Montana was quite the experiance. For one, we were staying in this little house out in the middle of the boonies. Also there was no showers... It definately was NOT my cup of tea.
On Friday Uncle Brad and all of the boys besides the twins came up to help Sharrons man friend, Marshell, with the new home he's building.
It wasn't long till the boys discovered my Ipod touch. It was love at 1st sight!:)
On Saterday night everyone besides Jaron jumped in the car and headed to good o' Montpelier! I had a blast in this little town. I got to hang out with my ah-dorable cousins, my beautiful Aunt Emily and her wonderful family. They could always keep a smile on my face even when I was starting to get homesick. When I first got there, it took some serious getting use to living with 6 boys. I'm use to my family of all girls and it was really different hanging out with all boys 24/7. Don't get me wrong because I had a blast,but it was really hard to get use to at first. For instance, they eat TON. I still honestly have no clue how those boys can eat so much and still be so dog gone skinny. Also they are messy eaters. It is so crazy to me how food can get to places you would never imagine it could reach. I learned a lot from these kiddos though. I learned how to properly eat barbeque chicken, how to play Mario Kart, how to tell the twins apart, how to shoot a gun, how to carve things out of wood and there rules, how to shoot a paintball machine, how to understand the twins lingo (My favorite word they say is "blowken" or "hotdoggers"), and many more.
Also while I was here, I was able to celebrate my little Ethan's 8th
birthday and attend his baptism. He got a spiffy new bike and a new set
of scriptures.
Oh and he got a special surprise from me and my family. A DS!:) We were a little nervous at first because the DS is pink.The second he saw his special D he freaked out. He loved it regardless of the color.
Over all, I had a blast in good o'l Montpelier and I can't wait to go back soon to visit my adorable family! I miss them already so much!
