Before Mike's Dad left to go back home we had him take a few quick pictures of us. Here are some of my favorites.

I included the one below so ya'll could get a feel about how big I'm getting. I feel huge but maybe it's just the summer heat!
And another one of my boys!

Mike's sister, Christine and her family came into town just before we left to Yellowstone. We had a great time hanging out for a few hours and here are some highlights. Ryan had a really great time playing with his cousins. We just wish they lived closer!

Family Time

So we took our first real family vacation together this last week and had a blast! We went to Island Park, which is about 20 minutes from West Yellowstone.
Ryan and Mike at Mesa Falls.
Edpa and Alex happened to be in the area so we got to hang out with them for a day and go into Yellowstone with them.
It was windy at the geysers but they were very beautiful.

Ryan loves to be in his hiking backpack and it gave cousin Alex a good workout.
The next day we tried our luck at fishing. NO FISH in a kid's fishing pond but Ryan had fun anyways! Below: Edpa fishing with Ryan.

Then of course, we just did a doing things outside. Mostly playing in the dirt.

And throwing rocks into the lake while daddy fished.
We also did a lot of swimming since our resort had a kids swimming area. Ryan said that was his favorite thing, but no pictures of that.

We had a blast and would love it even more if there weren't so many mosquitoes!
