Just a little get-a-way!

So spur of the moment Ryan and I decided to take a little road trip just to get away for the weekend and we ended up in Bozeman, MT. Neither of us had ever been there and so we just went for the weekend. It was really great just to get out of the house and go somewhere. My awesome sis Rachel got us a really great deal on a hotel room because she works at the AmericInn. We left Friday night and got up there kinda late so we didn't do anything but Saturday we got up and went to the Museum of the Rockies. It was pretty cool. They have a

great dinosaur exibit! We also watched a film in the planetarium there and looked at some other exibits but the dinosaurs were by far the best!

After the museum we went to the mall there to buy Ryan a belt (he forgot his) and had lunch and did a LITTLE shopping. The mall there kinda sucks! But there was a cool kitchen supply store there so we got some stuff there. After lunch we drove into downtown Bozeman to look around and then went back to the hotel and took a nap. It felt so good to just relax and have no agenda. We went to dinner that night at Outback and then stopped at Cost Plus World Market which is so cool! I think Ryan liked it even more than me cuz the only stuff we bought was his! On our way back to the hotel we stopped at Lucky Lil's. However, I wasn't so lucky and lost about $10 in about 20 minutes so we gave that up pretty quick! We aren't big gamblers! At that point we went back to the hotel and later found out we took the really, really long way home and the hotel was a lot closer to the shopping part of town than we thought it was. Oh well! We had a great time! Our trip home was a little scary however. We were caught in the middle of a severe winter storm that made driving home really scary! At one point we could barely see the car in front of us but there was nowhere to pull over and stop so we just had to keep going. We made it home safe and sound and now we are back to our Sunday evening routine of laundry and X-Box.
