Boats with Grandma

 August 10, 2012
Grandma Tew had a bunch of styrofoam and other materials so the kids made boats to float down a creek.  They had a great time making their boats very cool.  When we got to a park there was not a lot of water but they still got the boats to go down.  Sometimes they had to push and move the water for them to go, but they had a lot of fun.  We had only been there a few minutes and it started to rain a little but that did not stop the kids. 










 Me and my parents!

Our Yellowstone Trip

August 9, 2012
Today we took a day trip to Yellowstone Park with Grandpa and Grandma and some of our cousins.  This was the first time that our kids had ever been to the park and they really enjoyed it!  Before we went into the park we stopped and let the kids wiggle their legs.  Don't Kim and I look so cute on the swings!  Sophie, Addy and Elsie chilling.
Boston and Carter try to walk across them as fast as they can.

 Me and my sweet kids at Old Faithful.  We forgot sunscreen and hats so I had to go to a gift shop and get some hats for my kids so they wouldn't get sunburned again.

 It was a really hot day and so after we watched Old Faithful we went to the Inn and got some yummy ice cream. 
 Penelope loved the ice cream so much that she would take a big spoonful and then make this cute face because she would get a brain freeze and then she would shake and she would have to spit some of it out. 
 My wonderful Mom and Dad (Grandpa and Grandma Tew)
 Look at those beautiful girls!
 When the kids first smelt the hot pots smell they couldn't stop laughing and talking about how it smelt like a fart.

 Had to get a picture of me in there.  Everyone taking a break
 Boston had to be the leader and if he wasn't he would get very upset
 Grandma had a bunch of snacks in her trunk so everyone had something before we left. 

Boston was SO tired, we didn't even get out of the parking lot and he was asleep.  It was a great time with family at the park.  We were hoping that we would see animals and we didn't see ANY.  The kids were pretty upset not to see any.  Maybe next time we go.

Camp Fire in the Back Yard

 August 7, 2012
After dinner today the kids kept asking for Grandpa to start a fire so they could roast marshmallows, so being the nice Grandpa that he is, he made one and we all had a great time.  Dan's boys kept asking if they could pee in the fire yet which got my boys excited, so when everyone was done all the boys got to pee in the fire to put it out. 




 This is Carter's bad sunburn on his neck and so every time he went outside we put sunscreen on and a hat and a red scarf around his neck to keep the sun off him.

Boys having a great time peeing!
