Tuesday June 29, 2021 - Billings, Montana

Today it got up to 99 degrees here in Billings. When it's hot outside, we hit the water:)). Our KOA has a pool that we spent the entire morning in.  There were plenty of other kids there to play with. We brought our tubes and goggles and they had stayed cool:)) 

Asher and Graham went mini golfing at one point.  The mini golf area here is probably the best mini golf we've ever seen at a campground.  

Here is Homie in his campsite.  

I mixed a few pictures here of our campground.  

Around 2 PM, when it was really hot, Graham talked all of us into going to a bike park that he found. It was hot!!  But that didn't stop my boys.  They are crazy.  Pepper and I stayed in the AC'd car. I only got out to take pictures.  Then I ran back to the car.  

I was so proud of Taj.  He hit every single jump. Even the biggest ones.  He is so crazy.  Asher and Graham were saying the other day that Taj is so much better at riding than they were at his age.  He is chasing his older brothers that's why he's so good and crazy and fearless.  

I love this pic of Graham.  

When the boys were over heating, we went back to the campground to cool off with ice cream and to eat lunch.  I love that most  KOA's sell ice cream onsite.  It makes an ice cream stop easy:))  

Graham took me out to the Yellowstone River that runs right by our campground.  

Scotty got done with work around 6:30 PM.  I found a lake close by named Lake Elmo.  So guess what we did??  Yup! we went to try out our new paddle boards!!  I love them!!!  They are so fun!!  Everyone got out on the boards.  Even Taj went by himself.  He knew exactly what he was doing.  We stayed until about 9 PM playing in the water.  PS.  this area of Montana is more low income but still so beautiful.  

This is Taj.

As if that wasn't enough for one day, the boys wanted to hit the bike park one more time since it was cooler outside.  Both boys did a 360 off of the last jump.  They are crazy.  We had a packed day with summer activities and are so grateful for all the wonderful family time we are having together.  Tomorrow we travel!!!  Billings was just a rest stop between two destinations!!
