Memorial Day and Yellowstone

Here are some pictures from the last couple of fun adventures we have had. Memorial Day BBQ at Lisa's and Yellowstone with the Salisbury's/Lindstrom's...

Julia was looking super cute in her blue head headband.

In an attempt to become the "Cool Aunt" Lisa decided to give the little one's their first swinging experience.


Yellowstone was great.  We saw like 6 bears, elk, bison in the middle of the road, a wolf, a coyote, a moose, and all sorts of other animals. The two days were long for the little one, but she took it like a champ.  She only had a couple of moments where she couldn't handle the car seat any longer. Here she is with her little Binky imprint face.


Riding smokey the bear.
People in the gift shop couldn't get enough of cute little Julia.  Everyone that walked by would check her out.  Of course, look at Tyrel in that hat....maybe he is the one they were checking out.

Our little nephew David.  What a cutie! Spending a weekend with him makes us excited to have a little boy of our own one day...hopefully!


I really loved all of the waterfalls and geysers we stopped at along the way.  The animals are great, but for me this is the best part of Yellowstone.

Old Faithful...you did not let us down.  I think seeing Old Faithful is something every person in the Utah/Idaho area needs to experience.  I'm glad I can finally check this off on my list.  I would say Julia could too, but she fell asleep during the ten minute wait.

This is what Julia did 75% of the trip. I think I looked at this little animal more than the little animals outside of the car. That's probably why I was never the first person to spot anything.

Ya know, since the first and only time Julia has laughed was at my house, I would have to say that I am officially the "Cool Aunt"

I wish I could have been in Yellowstone with you guys. Maybe next year!!

I am putting together a team for the Red Rock Relay after all. If either or both of you want to run, let me know ASAP.

Love you

Julia's binky face looks like Carter. They really seem to resemble each other in it.

And I don't agree with Lisa. Everyone knows Auntie Kayla is da bomb.
