Yellowstone trip



Again a little slow but here is our trip to Yellowstone. Our kids had never been there before so we decided to take them when we were up in Island Park. It rained part of the day but we still had a great time! We saw alot of geysers, the lower falls, and Old Faithful.

Here's are a few pictures of our trip to Island Park.

It turned out that my sisters were there with us. So my kids got to play with their cousins alot. Blake was the boat driver. Here he is helping Ethan & Carter drive.

We did alot of boating even though it was COLD! Kierstyn really liked the tube this year and Ben just liked riding in the boat. Blake & I went waterskiing about twice everyday.





We got out the paddle boat and the kids all went for a ride. They had alot of fun!

Ben's all time favorite thing to do was to throw rocks in the lake. He did it for hours. When we went on walks he would pick up rocks to throw in the lake. He cried when we made him leave.

And here's the 3 squirrels sleeping in the same bed. Amazing that we ever got them to go to sleep.

We love Island Park and our trips there every year. A big thanks to Grandma & Grandpa Davis for letting us stay at the cabin!!!!!
I didn't have a chance to post this before we left town but this is what my sweet little girl did to her hair. It happened one morning when the kids were downstairs doing some art projects. I ran upstairs just to get dressed. When I came back down Kierstyn was laying down on the floor with her hands behind her back. I asked her what she was doing and what was behind her back. She said she cut her hair. This chunk of hair was behind her back.


It looked like she took a handful of hair and pulled it down in front of her face and cut it off at her nose. I have to admit I didn't handle it very well, I yelled at her and then I cried because I loved her long hair. But I know it could have been alot worse. I took her to my stylist who fixed it up and looks pretty cute now. I guess there are always a few growing pains as kids grow up.
