Yellowstone

So in August we went to Yellowstone with Dave's family. Now when I say family I mean EVERYONE!!! We go for an entire week, Saturday to Saturday. It's a week long family reunion!! It's kinda crazy, it totally reminds me of girls camp!!! We have flag ceremony, announcements, a counting jar, we sing songs by the camp fire, and have a load of games to play, which some of them are made out to be so big and fun that we make them in to tournaments!!! On top of that we all wear different colored shirts every day, but we all wear the same color whatever it is that day!! We get a lot of looks when we go into West Yellowstone, it's quite the sight!! It's hilarious!!


Yes there are actions to just about every song we sing!!! And we all have to stand up and do them together!!






This huge flag we found it at the dump when we went. So sad, it was crumpled up at the dump on the ground!! So we grabbed it and took it back and gave it a new home & a flag ceremony!!!


Me and Dave's sister Jen, and Dave getting ready for our 7 hour ride!!




About 13 of us went on a 7 hour ride on four wheelers, Dave was on a dirt bike, and I rode with Dave's dad and brother-in-law in the back of Dave's dad's army jeep. It was great, I had the most comfortable seat of everyone. We rode to the most beautiful waterfalls that are the next pictures below!! (I'm only wearing the UTAH hat because it was red day, otherwise I'd be wearing a BYU hat, plus I had a big blue X over the UTAH emblem!!!)

Well in order to get into the actual Yellowstone park to see Cave Falls they did not allow ATV's in to the park. So 11 of us crammmed into the army jeep we had with us. Except Dave and I, we rode in on his dirt bike because it was registered on rode!!



Cave Falls, this waterfall is beautiful!!




This is Sheet Falls!! This is really one cool waterfall, these pictures don't do it justice!!


Hangin' out with some of the clan, watching the kids do the rocket launchers!!


Cute family portrait in front of our new family flag!!

I didn't know that you were doing the blog thing too. I'm adding it to my favoirites and will be checking often!

I didn't realize the Yellowstone thing was that big of a deal. What a trooper for going along with it!

P.S. do I get to be grounded away from my kids? :)
