Last week we went on a trip to the Tetons. Clark, Swathi, Soren, Sruthi, Vince, Louie, Ginny, Clara and Bea all joined us. My mom hosted everyone at a beautiful cabin in Alta, Idaho.
The first two days after we arrived were a whirlwind of sightseeing the Tetons and Yellowstone, and the third day we all lay around on couches staring at each other. I liked that day the most.
My favorite part of the trip was Thursday night. We all sat around and visited under the stars. I was wrapped in a fuzzy blanket and drank copious amounts of hot cocoa. We should have done that every night!
I am appalled that I don’t have more pictures. I am hoping that people will send me theirs so I can amend this post and add more. I was very lazy when it came to picture taking on the trip.
Arriving at the TetonsThe kids took the Junior Ranger pledge. They actually were completely silent and shy when the ranger asked them to repeat after him, but they did a good job raising their hands. 🙂Bea and Ammon held hands at Old Faithful.Soren, Bea, and Mary danced Ring Around the Rosy at the general store by Jenny Lake.hugs.
Oh, my mom just informed me Swathi has a lot of pictures on Facebook! I will post them below.
Ginny, Louie, and Bea.
On the day we arrived we took a hike through the Targee National forest. The trail head was down the road from our cabin. This is the road leading to the trail head.
We got separated from the group at String Lake, but at least the group took pictures! If we ever go back to the Tetons, I am just going straight to String Lake. It’s so pretty and the kids loved playing in the water.
Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.
Old Faithful.
Soren and Ammon made friends!We took a boat ride around Jenny Lake.The kids made a little cave for themselves and played in it a lot.
