This picture was taken at Norris Basin. Yellowstone is pretty incredible. If you haven't ever gone you should and if it has been a few years it is always fun to revisit.
My kids thought it would be fun to get on this log. Well most of my kids. Ryker and Reese were not sure of the idea. We took this picture at the top of the Canyon. Right after this picture was taken we went and got some bug spray. The mosquitos were crazy right there. I really didn't see them anywhere else. Thank goodness!
This picture was taken at one of the kids favorite spots. It was taken at the artist paint pots where mud was bubbling like crazy. The kids giggled for quite some time.
Here is Heath and Stephanie's family at Norris Basin. It was a lot of fun to spend time with them. The kids grow up so fast. The older kids really helped out with the little ones. It was nice to watch.
Aunt Taryn was able to come. Lauren really enjoyed holding her had and having someone to be with. Thanks Taryn!
Here is a picture of all the kids except Reese and Audrey. What a good looking group of kids!
Nap time. I think I could have had a nap at this time of day too.
Here is one of many pictures we took of animals. It was one of the most exciting thing for all of us to see (that is all the animals!)
Shane and his siblings at Old Faithful!
My kids in the lodge at Old Faithful. I really enjoy Rykers crazy eyes.
What a cutie!
Some amazing views. This was taken as we were driving past Yellowstone Lake. I think it turned out pretty good for not stopping.
This was taken by the rapids that the fish were possible jumping. Unfortunately when we got there there were no fish. The kids still had fun throwing rocks and being together. Emily's foot slipped in the water and got all wet. Thanks for taking one for the team for this picture Em.
Reese loved being carried around. She didn't get a whole lot of sleep the days we were in Yellowstone but was a trooper. I however forgot to put sunblock on us the first day and she got a really bad burn on her cheeks. Reese never complained about it though. Thanks for not making me feel worse about it.
The older kids really enjoyed spending some time together. It is fun to make memories while they are growing up.
Andrew and Ryker watching the water boil. They both wanted to climb up the fence and get a little closer. Thankfully there were plenty of eyes to watch the little ones.
This was the first bison that we saw. There was a ranger there and he taught us that they travel in groups. The oldest female will lead them. The way that you tell boys from girls are the girls horns are curly and boys are straight. It was fun to get this bit of information in the beginning so we could watch them the rest of our trip. The babies we just a few months old.
Melanie loved the wind in her hair. She kept swishing her head back and forth. It was funny to watch.
Here is another group shot of my family.
Again the views were amazing.
The picture above is a group of bison were on the move They walked right down the road. Thankfully blocking the other side of the road. We could have easily touched them out our window if we dared to.
Here is a picture of a baby bear cub. It climbed this dead tree. The limb broke and it fell. It was cool to see.
Tanner and Cherylyn watching Old Faithful.
