Busy Times

This last week was a busy one! Gunnar & I went and rode in the truck with Nathan on Tuesday, while he was hauling hay! It was fun, and worked great, because the semi has a sleeper, so I could feed him in halfway comfort while Nathan was busy loading the truck again! You get to see different views and areas of the ranch that we don't go to very often! After riding with him that afternoon, I had Dresser Club that night, so Nathan took care of Gunnar for me. It was a nice 3 hour break, but no so much for Nathan. I guess Gunnar wanted his mama most of the night, and wasn't content until I got home! At least Nathan earned another new respect for me-hah!This is one of the nice views while out in the truck with Nathan...

Wednesday we went to the Hills. Gunnar had his 3 month pictures taken, and did pretty darn good. We only got a few smiles out of him, but at least he wasn't screaming his head off, right? We'll be back in October for his 6 month pics, and might even get family ones done! I love pictures, professional or mine, I just love them! We met up with Kit while in Spearfish, and it was great to see him. Him and his fiance' just bought a house in Belle, so we are SO excited to have them close to us, and can't wait for our future get togethers! After Walmart and other errands, we headed home, we were all beat!

Thursday night when Nathan got off work, we headed over to Jamie & Justin BROWNS ranch. They got married last night (8.8.09) so we went over to their house while they were getting last minute things done. It was fun to hang out, and Nathan's cousin was there visiting too, so it was great to visit with her! Gunnar was ready to go home, so we left around 9:00. Needless to say, he IS a scheduled little boy, just like his mama, so he was frazzled that his schedule was off. He was up until 11:30, making sure not to miss a thing-ha! Finally, he caved in and slept to his usual 6:00 a.m.

Yesterday we headed back to the Hills for Jamie & Justin's wedding at Besler's Cadillac Ranch outside of Belle Fourche. It was a beautiful outside wedding, but with thunderstorms moving in, after the vows were over and the couple announced, it started pouring! While everyone got inside, a beautiful rainbow was appearing, and it was a true happy ending! A big wedding, full of love, for two great friends! We'll be back to the same spot in 2 weeks for Jessica Painters wedding, which will be another fun time! We didn't end up finding a room in the Hills, since everything is full due to the Sturgis Rally, so we drove home last night. Needless to say, we didn't get a dance but got home around 11:30. Once again, Mr. Gunnar woke up, and didn't go back down until 1:45 this morning-yuck! We slept until 7:00 this morning and all just took an afternoon nap, with Gunnar still sleeping! Here we are getting ready to go across the bridge for the wedding, what a beautiful place!

What a neat place!

Jamie & Justin Brown 8.8.09
Jamie is so cute and little! I look like a giant compared to her! What a beautiful bride!

Later on today we have to go clean Continental, but other than that, a lazy Sunday! We hope that everyone is enjoying the last few weeks before school and new routines start up again! Hard to believe summer is coming to end!
