Yellowstone.

Dave's family had planned a trip. Six of the eight siblings came. All the grand kids were there, minus one who has yet to make his debut! This week on Monday we left for Yellowstone. Porter HATES the car so he cried a lot. I feel bad, but we made him anyways. We stayed in a place called Island Park. On Tuesday we loaded up our cars and drove the Yellowstone path. It was cold and occasionally rained. Worst of all the boys were in rotten moods and threw tantrums most of the way back to our cabins. At one point I made Dave pull over and I took Cole out of the van and told him to stop or we were leaving him there! Not my most proud moment and not one that a parent should EVER have, and it didn't scare him anyways. He started to walk away.....
  

On Wednesday we went to a bear and wolf exhibit and it was fun to kind of see them up close!
 

There were a lot of car lines! Construction was everywhere! It made me think of, "if you build it they will come!"

This man is enjoying the peace through fly fishing! Beautiful sight!
 


 
Boiling mud anyone?
 



 
Old Faithful.....


   
These Bison decided to raid the road! We had to wait until we could get past. Thanks for not ramming us!!!!
  

In the top of this tree there is an Eagle sitting in that nest! It was pretty cool!!!





 
All the grand kids minus one still baking :)
    
Getting ready to come home....

   
 This was the scene we woke up to the morning we were leaving....Snow anyone? It was only like 30 degrees...
