Elk

We started out driving to Old Faithful and stopped to see these elk crossing a river. There's something we don't see everyday! Judith thought they looked more like horses than elk.
This is how close we were. Pretty cool.

This was another place on the way. We thought it was worth stopping for.

This chipmunk was moving so much. It was hard to get a non-blury picture. It was only in each position for mere seconds. Okay, so we do see stuff like this a lot, but this little guy was cute.


West Yellowstone

We stayed at West that night. These pictures were taken at the Bear & Wolf Discovery Center. Oh cute, a bear kiss!

The bears were pretty exciting, the wolfs, not so much.

These painted buffaloes were all over at West. Cameron & Jennifer thought they were cool enough to get a picture with. These were also the only buffalo we saw on the trip.



Artist Point

This was our last stop on the first day. What a gorgeous place. This was one of our favorite places in the park.


Not a fabulous picture, but everyone was in it.
Dave, Connor, Annette, Jen, Lizzie, Nicole, Rachael, Cameron, Cassie, Judith, Heidi.





Upper falls

This can pretty much speak for itself.

We saw mule deer when we were walking to the falls.

Geysers

We went to Yellowstone National Park on August 6th and 7th. We didn't even see half the park, but we took a lot of pictures. It was so fun to have Rachael and Connor come with us. Our first stop was Noris Geyser Basin. It was exciting to see all the beautiful things around the park.

Caves

On our way down to Rigby, we stopped at the Lewis and Clark Caverns. These are just some of the many formations that we saw. We had to hike up to the cave entrance, so we all enjoyed the cave being nice and cool.

Traveling

I just thought this was a cute picture. They were watching The Lion King in the motor home on our way down to Southern Idaho.

Grandma Divis and Nicole's birthdays

We went on vacation and we spent the first few days at our Grandma and Grandpa Divis' house. While we were there we celebrated our birthdays and had a mini family reunion. Retta's birthday is on July 30th and nicole's is on the 31st. We only took a few pictures, so sorry about that.
This is the part of the Divis gang that were there.

Cassandra's 11th Birthday!

The theme of her party was "High School Musical." She had a slumber party with 2 of her good friends. Lizzie also had a friend over. Cassie got a "bella dancerella." It teaches the High School Musical dances. The girls all learned the dances and thought it was so fun! Her birthday was on July 21st.
