Montana

This winter Levi, Payton, Jade and I took another road trip to Montana. We left Fargo super early in the morning and drove for 17 hours straight! On our way we saw over 300 head of deer! I have never seen that many deer before in my entire life! There were huge herds grazing in pastors everywhere we looked, it was pretty amazing. (they were all white tail deer no muleys)
We stayed at an adorable antique little hotel called, "The Grand Hotel" downtown Kalispell. They were celebrating their 100th year in business this year! We stayed there for four nights and enjoyed every one.



We explored the open parts of Glacier National Park, Libby where Levi and his family used to live for a little while, Eureka a small town by the border of Canada, Whitefish which is right next to Kalispell, among a few other places.
We went hiking at Kootenai Falls and tried to push Payton in her stroller along the path which was hilarious! Our stroller is not made for four wheeling but it worked for part of the way. We tied Jade Man to the front of it and had him help pull it along, it was funny. When we decided to hike to the swing bridge we had to ditch our stroller in the bushes because the terrain was too much for that poor thing! We stuffed Payton in Levi's jacket and put his beanie on her and then hiked the rest of the way. The swing bridge was scary, it was pretty high over a raging river and it swung (Obviously 'SWING bridge') but we made it :). Once we were on the other side Payton started crying so we didnt explore any further. It was a pretty fun adventure!










In Libby Levi found the house his family used to live in and explored where he used to play as a kid with his siblings. We ate at a cute little diner and we saw a few elk, which was pretty cool.




Montana is gorgeous and we loved our trip.
