Yellowstone Family Vacation 09

Yellowstone Here We Come!

Thanks to Terri & Todd and company for humoring us and stopping to take this pic for us after we had all just gotten in the car! It was fun to have them there with us! Thanks for helping us out that day too!

They loved all of the hot pots and Geysers

Our family at Old Faithful
Mackenzie, Brinley, Micailey, and little cousin Brooklyn


Old Faithful

We did have peace in the afternoon while ALL kids (except Dallas) were sleeping!!! Aahhh!

Some of the beautiful scenery

The kids are standing in front of the Falls that they hiked clear down to a look out post at the top of the falls. The next pic is zoomed in to that look out post. It kind of scares me that I let my little kids do this! (With their dad and Uncle of course!)

Oooh! the stinky hot pots!

Walking on the paths

This hot pot had a beautiful color of water and you could see down in it. It had really cool layers to it.

On our way home we went through Jackson Hole. It's tradition to get our picture by the antler arches. This whole day was rather interesting and funny! While we were at Old Faithful, my niece's baby ended up having an "explosive" diaper and need ALL new clothes (which they didn't have), then their little boy ended up throwing up in the car right before Jackson & needing ALL new clothes (which they also didn't have). Then we got out of the car in Jackson & Macie had also "exploded" and needed a new onesie. We then ate dinner and got back in the car and proceeded to drive through all of the winding roads in the dark, which resulted in Micailey getting car sick! She has never been car sick before and we luckily got her out to fresh air before she lost it. I know my niece was glad to be home, and by the time we got back to my sisters that night, we were too!!!

All in all it was a REALLY FUN trip though! The kids loved seeing all of the beautiful scenery and animals! Jordan now points at clouds in the sky and says "look hot water mom" because of all of the steaming hot pots. :oP
