Montana Girls Trip - a photo essay

it's a long post but I promise mostly pictures...

~Shelby, day one, during a pit stop in the Crowsnest Pass
~ the first thing I always buy when going into the States (this one was bought in Whitefish and then a bagful of mini's were bought at Target)
~ Flathead lake, on our way home from shopping in Missoula (Day 2)
~ I did not think it was possible to find someone who was going to take more pictures then me but Miss Taylor was always snapping.
~ the girls, they are not everyday friends (they are close in age (16&17), but don't go to the same school or have the same social crowd but see each other occasionally at Kaeden's birthday parties etc...) but they really got along well this trip and are both outrageously photogenic. 

~  a new  favourite
~ my new home...at least in my dreams

~ the 3 above pictures are of little islands on Flathead lake, each one had a home on it

~ something about sailboats, water and reflections that I find very relaxing

~a picture I took for Scott 

~ above two pictures taken from the parking lot of our hotel~ the girls, end of our trip.

a HUGE thank you to Charmaine who stopped many many MANY times for us so we could take pictures and it was more than a little stressful as we would tell her we wanted to stop when she was almost past the area. We decided the next trip we would give up a day of shopping so we could concentrate on taking pictures as there were many beautiful place we could have gone.
