A hike to the falls

The falls were really a beautiful site. The cascades on the way were almost as beautiful. The hike zigzaged along the side of the mountain on a paved trail. The kids all made it. Then they sat really quiet in the van on the way to the next falls:)

It was a bit chilly and rainy. Thus the need for the hoods.

A second falls and family photo op/...

We made it to yellowstone...

Family Photo at the sign.

Lots of wild life. Buffalo, Antalope, Bears, Elk and a few others. We got to see them all.

On the way to Yellowstone

We made quite a few stops at some beatiful palces. I think I could have sat in this park all day.

In the corner you can see the rental van. We used that to tour the park and carry all of us.

arriving at the Vanorder farm

Uncle Evan took us for a 4-wheeler ride around the property. There is a beatiful river in the back and lots of room to ride.

The boy's set up a target for sling shots. They were getting pretty good.
The girls set up camp and pretended to be Indian's.
The kids took a ride on noodles.
