Yoinked Yellowstone Pics


So our trip to Yellowstone had an interesting start- unbeknownst to us we began the trip harboring a mean and nasty 24-hr stomach bug. So about 3 hrs into the car ride to Island Park, ID Kaden was the first to enlighten us- every ten minutes on the dot. Next was me, sick also every 10 minutes (thankfully it didn't start until we FINALLY reached the cabin). Tyler was so sweet and took good care of us- so naturally he came down with it too. Ky was fine because he's the one who started the whole thing earlier on in the weekend at home (we had no idea it had spread to us until it was too late since it took a while to catch on.)

The first thing we did after recovery was float the river- I think it was my favorite part. Here is Ky on the bus, ready to go...

A much happier Ky once we gave in and took off his vest (it was extremely calm water).

The boys floating the river...Kaden apparently in distress over something.

Next day we went to Old Faithful- sorry so squinty!

The great and amazing buffalo- Kaden's FAVORITE animal. He wouldn't leave the gift shop with anything less than a buffalo t-shirt.

Posing at a waterfall at Firehole (Kaden is sleeping in the car).

Kaden got to go fishing with Grandpa's sister's family...

and then he fell in the river...so here he is naked in a camping chair while dad and grandpa fish.
The drive home was mercifully uneventful- Kaden didn't even get car sick (I think driving for hours in Yellowstone helped that).
Thanks Erica for letting me steal your pics of Yellowstone!

Looks like so much fun! I want to go to Yellowstone so bad- we're hopefully going for a few days in August. You'll have to give me the details of the river trip (like where you went and how much it was)- we'd love to do that!

How fun! Last time I was there, was with Erica and it was freezing butt cold. Looks like a lot of fun in the summer though. Cute pics:)

Fun. I heard all about the adventure from Diana at work the other night. Hope Cali drive works out for all of us!
