Yellowstone Trip

For our family vacation we headed to Yellowstone. We stayed in my Grandma's cabin in Island Park and the kids loved hiking around it to pick flowers and look for animals. We saw a mama deer and baby deer that were living under the cabin, too bad I got so excited that I scared them off for the rest of the trip. My kids weren't too happy with me! We also enjoyed visiting West Yellowstone and Bear World (next post). The highlight was seeing Uncle Drew's plays at Macks Inn! They were hilarious and we all had a great time seeing him in action. We enjoyed some cousin time hanging out with our cousin Ellie and we even got to see James, Vari, and their kids while we were there.

Carter in West Yellowstone, loving the animals. I was surprised that the kids loved walking around the gift shops. We even found a cool dollar souvenir shop that our neighbors told us about. The kids had fun picking a little souvenir to take home.


The girls were super excited that they kept seeing fliers for Uncle Drew's shows hanging all over in West. They couldn't believe how famous he was!

Here we are with Uncle Drew dressed up as a lady. It was a pretty awesome costume. Matson was terrified of him! He wanted nothing to do with him.
