We were able to spend the last week in July at Glacier National Park in Montana. It is a huge Lovinger family tradition and it was so fun to get to take Grant for the first time. He was in heaven getting to play around in the dirt and rocks the whole time and just be outside running around all the time. Even though we were there for I think five nights, it went WAY to fast. We went on hikes(more like easy walks with the kids in tow), had great food, played games, built fires, relaxed, played in the water and just had a great time as a family.
I think this picture of Grant is funny. This was on the drive to Glacier from Spokane when we stopped for lunch. He was deciding what he wanted (;

one of the days we were there was Mimi's birthday, so the kids got to help her open her presents!
This was the day that we went into town to pick up Tyler from the airport. I looked over and saw Grant trying to "drink" his hamburger.
you can't tell in this picture, but Papa and Grant were dancing to some music on the boat
BEAUTIFUL
like I said, lots of relaxing!

warming up by the fire
these two would often be off exploring in the woods together. I love that they got to spend some good cousin time together since they don't get to see each other very often right now. Hopefully that will change in the next few years!
water time!
floating in the water
we lost Grant's swimming suit, so Papa and Mimi bought Grant a new one. I had to buy him this cute robe to go with it!
the cute swimsuit!
skipping rocks with Mimi
Can't figure out how to change this right now, but they are ready for a boat ride!
Grant thought he wanted to be out with Dad, but when he got going he wanted to be back on the boat!
We stopped the boat for a while and all jumped in and swam for a bit. I was afraid Grant would freak out when he jumped in and realized it is FREEZING, but he loved it.
yeah, that's how Grant rolls... driving the boat while Dad was tubing!
some good hot cocoa
taking Grandma Carole's dog, Bonji on a walk(or Bonji taking Grant on a walk might be more accurate!)
going on a hike
yes, very responsible to teach the little kids how to make a fire.
like I said, good food. I think we all gained five pounds
yummy!
looking at pictures
reading with Mimi
skipping rocks again
Grant was a big help and tried to keep Jackson entertained. He would always make sure he picked up any toys Jackson dropped too.
It was such an AWESOME camping trip. I don't think I took enough pictures of everything to do it justice, but we are all eagerly looking forward to when we can go again!
