We got leave approved a week before deciding to go on vacation. The plan was to go to Glacier National Park in MT! We drove about 4 1/2 hrs toward Glacier and stopped and stayed the night in Glasgow, MT only to get up the next morning and find out that forest fires broke out in Glacier last night. :( Sad day...we really wanted to see Glacier and heard of good hikes and sights to see from friends. But determined to still go on a family vacation we headed south to Yellowstone! (Also a must see on our list while living up north)
Looking for a campground the night we drove in. All the campgrounds were full but awesome wildlife along side the road!
We ended up staying in a hotel right outside the park the first night. Zebulun's so sweet when he's sleeping!
We had a great view of some of the park right off our balcony.
Early the next morning we headed into the park.
Yellowstone Lake
Old Faithful!! And the 2 mile hike around it to see lots of other smaller geysers and hot springs.
Zebulun slept about half of the hike.
And he's awake!
Inside the lodge near Old faithful
ICE CREAM after our long hike! (I in flip flops, i might add, cause silly preggo brain forgot her tennis shoes at home)
I love this boy sooo much!
"Something smells yucky" -Zebulun about the sulfuric smell ;)
Finally got to camp in the park! Cooking hot dogs for dinner.
Marshmallows!
Cooking breakfast
Absolutely love camping (yes, even pregnant)! Waking up to campfire coffee, cinnamon rolls, outdoors and a little quite time with the Creator! We woke up at 6, Zebulun slept till 8.
That day we drove down to the Tetons
We rented a canoe and had a great time out on Jackson Lake.
Him and daddy sayin "ready, set, go"
Daddy made biscuits
and I cooked the eggs and sausage
After a wonderful breakfast we decided more hiking and sight-seeing in Yellowstone!
Stopped for lunch and ice cream
What a wonderful family vacation!
