Yellowstone

We went to Yellowstone a weeks ago.

Even though I was eight months pregnant I figured it would be better to go with the baby in than out. All I can say is I figure we were in the car 40 hours plus and that our kids are the best travelers. We saw a bunch of animals I don't know if you can see them in the pictures. We saw a black bear up in a tree, a mama black bear with two cub, two grizzly bears, elk, bison, coyotes, bald eagles, deer and lots of birds and tons of beautiful scenery.

We got there on a rainy Wednesday but it cleared up long enough that we could get our tent up and make dinner. Thursday it rained off and on but we where in the car most of the day looking for animals and going to the museums. That night however we got back and started dinner and it started to hail we got about one and half inches. We huddled in the front part of our tent and ate dinner. The poor neighbors next to us it flattened their tent. Jeremy waited up until they got back and helped them put it back. That night I could hear some wrestling in the front of our tent when I woke up to go to the bathroom I woke Jeremy up and there was a chipmunk in bag we forgot to through away. So being the hero Jeremy is he got the bag and walked me to the bathroom and threw it away and 2 am.
Friday was nice weather which was nice because we had to change to a different camp ground and we went to go see Old Faithful. The new camp ground was nice because it was big the kids ran around and played so nicely for about two hours, Bradley found a hole that he put sticks in and then took them out for about an hour plus. then we took another drive.
Saturday we packed up to go home. It took us about ten hours as we went through the Tetons and Star Valley Wyoming.
All I can say is it was nice. No cell phones. We got up when we wanted and had no set plans so we didn't feel like we had to cram everything in and we got great campsites that were close to the restrooms, which was nice for me. I hope we can every year take a little family vacation with just us to build some fun family memories.
