Home again

Since school has started, I'm finding it a lot more difficult to get access to the computer. I mean, my children act as if their homework is more important than my blogging! ;)

Todd and I went on another excursion to Yellowstone. It will probably be the last time for a while. It was crowded, cold, rainy, we noticed few animals, but it was WONDERFUL!

We went on a drive to the top of a mountain near Island Park. We go to Island Park (near Yellowstone) several times a year but we had never explored the backcountry to the west.















The top of the mountain was shrouded in fog. The cool air was so inviting.
















Every winding turn showed us something new.


Todd and I had a wonderful conversation and actually kicked around the idea of moving to the Yellowstone area after Larissa graduates high school in four years. Who knows?!
















On our way home, we stopped at this gas station in Ashton, Idaho.



I really didn't think the trip could get any better. But it soooo did.







THEY SELL MY CUPS! Remember my obsession over a cup? (Read cup post here).


And I stocked up on even more of these babies.

Aren't they beautiful?










And while picking up the girls from their mom's house on the way home, I got to hold these little cuties.





A great weekend, indeed. And I think we're done traveling for a while. Maybe life can get back to normal again! (Ha!)
