Chris finished the Washington State Bar on July 30th!! (Results will be in around the middle of October.) Congrats sweetie, I'm so proud of you! So to celebrate and get away from the heat (inside our house it was constantly around 85 degrees- yuck!) we packed up and drove to Yellowstone!
My sweet grandparents have a cabin that they built in Island Park and they were kind enough to let us stay there for a week.
Here are my sweet grandparents! We spent a couple days with them in Idaho Falls. Grant loved spending time with his great-grandparents- he made quick friends!
One of Grant's favorite pasttimes is throwing rocks into any body of water. So we pulled off the road to throw rocks into Firehole River in YStone. Grant was impressed with this "Really Big Rock!"
This is a garbage can after it was tested for "Bear Proofing". I'm not a scientist, but I don't think it passed.
We went to a Bear and Wolf Reserve, but I think Grant had more fun playing on the playground.
Although, he did enjoy hiding out in the Wolf's den.
A post-rock- throw observation.

Grant loves to ask Chris and I to follow him. Here is he directing Chris where to go next.

One of my favorite spots is the Grand Canyon on Yellowstone! Absolutlely amazing!
Another shot of the canyon.
Grant thought the waterfall was cool, but was more interested in throwing rocks through the fence.

(Just an FYI- I'm 6 months along in these pics)
Smiling eventhough he practically lived in a car for a week! What a good boy!
We didn't see as many animals in the park, as we have in the past. But we were satisfied when this Bull Elk walked in front of our car. I was taking a picture with my window rolled down, but I quickly rolled it up as the Elk got closer to the car.
At the cabin, we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows! Yum!!!

Congrats to Chris on passing the bar! I love Yellowstone! Such great pictures. What a fun way to celebrate. And Karalee,... you only have 3 more months until cutie #2?! Woo hoo!
Glad you had fun in Yellowstone! You are such a cute and fun family! We should go camping together sometime!
Looks like a super fun trip! We'll be going out to Yellowstone ourselves in a couple weeks. YAY for the bar being over!
Sounds like you had a lot of fun! By the way, Danny has the same shark shirt and blue plaid shorts. I believe that is at least the second outfit featured on both of our blogs. :)
I love how much fun you guys have outdoors! You've been to some beautiful places! Miss you!
