We decided to drive the few hours it takes to go to Yellowstone National Park today. The kids haven't ever been (well, Kade was 8 weeks old the last time we went), so we were excited to show them the park! It was a beautiful day, but really crowded! Even though the rangers kept saying it wasn't really that busy we didn't believe them! The roads were packed with cars and the hiking trails were packed with people. But we still really enjoyed our time there today. We saw hot pots, the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone with the amazing waterfalls, and Old Faithful! Plus a lot of wildlife, although we didn't catch a sighting of any bears.
On our way home we decided to drive through the Grand Teton National Park to Jackson Hole, WY and then home. That is one of the most beautiful drives ever! I love the Grand Teton mountains. We definitely need to spend more time there sometime soon.
We spent a lot of time in the car today, but our kids did a really great job! Maybe we'll have to do it again these next several days while we enjoy our temporary home in Idaho Falls.
