Happy Thanksgiving: Montana style...

Scott and I FINALLY made it happen! We finally made it to Montana to visit our DEAR friends, the Bybee's, over Thanksgiving. Scott and I met Annie and Terry at College in Oklahoma. To sum up our friendship, us girls are constantly trying to keep the boys out of trouble, they tend to bring the best out of each other when they are togther. But as crazy as they are they always make us laugh. Aside from goofing off, we've been there for each others engagements, apart of each others weddings and continue to cherish their friendship even though it is a "long distance" relationship. In all honesty, the challenge of staying in touch is always present, but the wonderful thing about them is that no matter how long it has been since the last time we've all been together, we pick up right where we left off!

It was such a blessing to visit with them, watch them PARENT their two beautiful kids,

LAUGH hysterically, play games, and just catch up on life.

Here are just a few of the fun memories we made....

Annie and I getting ready to head out the doorTerry and Hadley
(Not sure why, but I didn't get any pictures of their kids. SAD. They also have an 8 month old Jude...BOTH OF WHICH ARE ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE)
While we were in town Annie and Terry insisted they take us to their favorite restaurant's in Billings...Fancy Shmancy Restaurant #1....it was great!

Yes, this is what they do!

Pictionary...

SEE ABOVE: THIS IS NEVER A GOOD SIGN FOLKS!

Good ol' pictionary was not good enough...on to their "new" made up game

..."BELLY ART" PICTIONARY.
VERY CREATATIVE.

I love this picture.

It's not often he laughs THIS hard...had to document it :)

Annie and Terry love weekend get-a-ways....

so they took us to one of their favorite places.

A cabin in BIG SKY!

The landscape was BREATH taking...and the cabin was so nice!

This was our room

Hanging out by the fire

On to playing more games....a good 50% of our time in Montana was spent playing

Hide-and-go-seek (NO, not a type-o)

Scott and Terry could play this game ALL. DAY. LONG. ALL. YEAR. LONG.

We also played NERDS while drinking coffee and listening to Pandora

...even thought I am awful at this game I throughouly enjoy these times we shared!

BIG SKY TOWN...this is were I got my ornament

(I collect ornaments from every place we visit)

Enjoying our view from our balcony

Oh Brother!

And he is down!

This is what happens when City Folk try to walk on ice...lol!

Sledding...with a babies sled. not ours. Fantastic.

Hmm...we were the only people in this restaurant.

i wonder why...

Calamari...Reason # 1

Terry's face tells all!

....reason # 2 waitress would not stop talking about Alaska (lol)
reason # 3 the boys ate none of their food. Picky Picky!

Playing the number game

Snowy day at the cabin...our last day in Big Sky.

It was a wonderful trip, one we will always remember.

Loved being in Montana and loved being with our friends.
