We have an annual reunion with my dad's side of the family and this year it was at Yellowstone. This year was quite the year! We had rain/ sleet, freezing temperatures (in August!), dead battery in our camper -(no heat), and a run in with a very no nonsense, power tripped park ranger about a power cord, yes just a power cord- resulting in a $75 fine and Adam practically in handcuffs--really- it was all blown WAY out of proportion at 11:30 at night. Good times hehehe. Anyway- despite all this we had a pretty good time and definatly made some memories. The kids loved seeing the wildlife and getting lots of attention from everybody! And surprisingly- the kids did very well on on the trails surrounding the "boiling hot lava"-which I had been stressing about for months. So- enjoy the pictures!
The family!
Very cool hike to Natural Bridge

My mom and Ella and Aaron- yes I was a tad bit worried about the cliff behind them (understatement)- but it was beautiful.

Some "Boiling hot lava" as the kids would say!
Ashton and my dad. He loved the binoculars!
Grandparents and their grandkids. :) Do you notice everyone has a hand to hold- that was a #1 rule of the entire vacation!
Chris, Marla, me and the kids at Old Faithful. It was freezing!!!
The buffalo were fun to watch! They were "courting" as the park ranger put it.
We got stuck right behind a very slow moving buffalo. It was very entertaining for the kids. We followed it for almost a mile! And this is a video of Old Faithful.
