Yellowstone...

Mini vacation to Yellowstone.
We saw Bison, 2 Bald Eagle's, Old Faithful and many other geyers, Yellowstone lake frozen solid, Waterfalls, Elk, happy kids, stinky smells, not a lot of people, bears.

It was a great time. Watch out for picture overload!

Old Faithful going off...




In front of Old Faithful before it went off.
This went right by the car! The kids were thrilled.
Frozen yellowstone lake behind us (the entire big lake frozen solid).
Bear warning

Those are some great pictures. It looks like so much fun. I bet your kids had a blast. I would have been just as thrilled as your kids when those bison ran past.

I can't wait for trips like this with our girls. I love watching life thru their eyes :)

Those are some great pictures. Emily would have been so excited to see the bison. I think Josh might have cried though. I'm glad you guys had a good time.

Is old faithful, faithful again? My family went to yellowstone the year before the big earthquake that changed old faithful and I never heard if it got back on schedule.

Jon is DYING to just pick up and go to Yellowstone for a weekend. If he saw your pictures he might just leave with or without me!!

So glad you and your cute family had such a great time!!

Looks like SO much fun! I am still too scared to take the twins on a vacation. They freak when we have to drive 25 minutes each way to get Olivia from Preschool!

You look FABULOUS!! From these pictures and the Boston pictures I can tell you have lost more weight and firmed up. WTG!
