The first day we drove down to Flathead Lake National Park.
Traveling troopers!
Had a picnic by the lake
Hungry Horse Dam and reservoir
We drove into West Glacier quickly and saw Lake McDonald and had ice cream on the way back to the hotel, Glacier Haven Inn (sorry, no pictures of the Inn)
Ice Cream in the park.

Day 2: Drove through the park for some sight seeing and a boat ride through Many Glacier!
Yea....im not sure?! The boy is crazy!
If you look really close (with binoculars) there is a grizzly bear in this picture!

Turquoise colored water created by "rock powder"/"rock dust" from the erosion of rocks by the glaciers.
Day 3: Spent the day hiking up Logan Pass trail to see hidden lake, and then dinner in Columbia Falls with friends
Lots of stairs and snow
Zebulun did absolutely amazing! Hiked the whole thing by himself! (About 3 miles round trip)
Taking a break to enjoy the view....and nurse Lenox!
Full and happy!
Mountain goats so close we could pet them!
Made it to the top, overlooking Hidden Lake
Chasing chipmunks
Lunch at the top, with Zeb's new "friend"
Again, if you look really close (with binoculars) there are big horn sheep sitting in those rocks
Beautiful ride back down on the trolley
Day 4: Did some sight seeing through Columbia Falls/Whitefish and then drove back to West Glacier to play at Lake McDonald
And of course there was laundry to be done! Lenox and I goofing off while waiting to put clothes in the dryer, while daddy and Zeb went and picked up some lunch.
The trip was not always roses...kids had their moments...
Lake McDonald
Daddy did awesome!
Amazing family vacation! Absolutely LOVED Glacier and the time we got to spend as a family goofing off, relaxing, having fun and enjoying God's beautiful creation!
