Hiawatha Trail and Painting....

 Friday my mom and I went to Pinots Palette. It has become one of my favorite places to go. we had a great time.

Saturday we Headed to Montana and rode the Hiawatha Trail. It is a 15 mile trail that used to be a railroad. It goes through several tunnels and over railroad tressels. The first tunnel is over a mile long so you have to have headlamps. The weather turned out great and other than luke getting a flat tire...fun was had by all.

A lovely Landon Pose:)

This is at the end of the long tunnel...

I tried to get a picture of all of us riding...

Luke got a flat tire about 2 miles in. Thank goodness a trail service guy rode by and helped us!!

Mom riding across one of the tressels.

Josie is a good bike rider, but I was worried about her comfort and whining levels when going through the tunnels. We used a tag a long bike that hooks onto the back of Luke's bike so she can still pedal, but doesn't have to:)

Landon fell asleep in the burley...

When you get to the end of the trail, you can take a school bus shuttle back to the top...Landon was excited to ride in a real school bus...He held my hand for most of the way:)

When we got home the farmer had his combine parked in our driveway...He told us that landon and josie could ride in it on sunday when he came back. Landon chickened out but my dad and josie rode in the combine on sunday for quite a while...

I used my nice camera on the begining of our trip, but the battery died so I only got a few pics with it.

My babysitter is on vacation this week, so my parents took the kids home to Ellensburg. My dad will have the kids all by himself during the day because my mom has to work.....It feels weird not having them here, it's quiet and I actually slept past 7am this morning!! We will see them up at the lake on friday evening and spend labor day up at lake roosevelt.
