Some fresh air

For the 4th of July weekend we decided to hit the open road and drive up to Ashton, ID for some much needed family time and fresh air! We had one of the best vacations we've ever had. We popped up our trailer at Adam's aunt and uncles cabin so we had running water and flushing toilets. :) We went to Mesa Falls and Cave Falls, and played around at the cabin. We had a great time and have many wonderful new memories. All smiles as we head out..... (That didn't last)The one picture of me, taken by me :)

Having fun on the 4 wheelers!



Cave falls- part of this trail was closed due to rock fall. The mosquitos were terrible!! I had the bug spray in my hand the whole time! But it was beautiful.


More cave falls




Our one glimpse of wildlife...can you see the deer?






Yes, it really is that big!! This is the double burger at "Big Jud's".






Aaron and Ashton were up early exploring.








Our view of the Tetons in the morning.....breathtaking.






Our hike by Mesa Falls










Our climbers!






I thought this would be a fun photo. :)






Upper Mesa Falls.- you actually hike right up to the water's edge.



Someone offered to take our family picture!!--This really was such a great vacation for us. It was nice to be together and have such a good time.
