Yellowstone 2012

 Last weekend we got to hang out in Yellowstone with part of Will's family.  Yellowstone is a fun place and we enjoy visiting and enjoying the beautiful scenery and animals.  The goal of this trip was to see bears and wolves and we succeeded in both!  We saw about 10 bears (including a few cubs with their mama bear) and a couple of wolves.  We stayed in West Yellowstone at a hotel and had a very enjoyable time.  It was a great vacation.  The weather was pretty cooperative, a bit chilly but didn't rain on us too much.

 Will and I rode in David and Jamie's car and it was a blast getting to visit with them as well as ride in the back seat with their baby Ole.  He is a very cute kid and so fun to hang out with.  He is a good baby, too!  It was a highlight of our trip to get to ride with him and hold him and play with him.

 Beautiful mountains and gorgeous scenery
 We love hanging out with Jamie, David and Ole! They live in Great Falls, MT and we don't get to see them all the time, so it was awesome that they could meet us in Yellowstone and play with us!

I am so glad that you guys were able to go to Yellowstone. I can't believe that I have actually thought a lot about you guys going to Yellowstone lately. It was awesome that you could go with part of your family. How great is that! We sure miss you guys and I wish that I could have come with Will and Uncle Craig to see you. We love reading your blog. We were thrilled to hear about adoption in your plans. Wo love you guys!

I think you need to put the picture of Will and Ole (in the car) on your adoption blog. It's adorable!
