We survived Thanksgiving through the exploding Pyrex dish, broken pipe, piles of snow and the power going out. We were thankful for some very basic things. It was an eventful day, but more on that later.
On Friday we went up to Glacier to surprise Tyler for his birthday. He turned the big 3-0 and, although we weren’t there for the surprise part, he had no idea that we were all meeting up to celebrate him! Joey did a fantastic job coordinating.
Barry and the boys got to dote upon Maggie and the following sequence of pictures is really funny. Keep your eye out for a chubby Pug:
I like the fact that Sydney saw her moment to shine and she moved on in, plus Bahl obviously thinks it is a-okay because he decided to give the two thumbs up.
But Jeff is kind of like that – a two thumbs up type of guy. He ran into Tyler at a gas station randomly shortly before Tyler was to arrive at the cabin to be surprised. Bahl hatched a little white-lie to keep the surprise from being discovered. Two thumbs up, right? Bahl give two thumbs up to the Huskies, funny pictures, and his sweet, sweet girlfriend, Allison, who was with her family and not at the cabin.
Eventually Maggie started to suggest that it was time to go by yelling in Joe’s face. Thankfully he has to nephews and so he was able to tolerate her screaming. Joe and Claire (not pictured, sadly) are getting hitched in a few weeks and Barry is in their wedding. Claire was wondering if the bridal party should do a fun dance at the wedding. Barry is a mover and a shaker, so I volunteered that he would love, love, love to do a fun dance. I may have gotten dagger eyed from Barry, but I survived.
We left the cabin and headed to the Miller/Rhone compound for a good night’s rest….so great to see some of our very favorite people*.
*Kurbbie, we missed you.
