Yellowstone National Park

Over this last weekend, Andy and I along with his family took a trip to yellowstone! It was my first trip to yellowstone so it was very enjoyable to me! I was able to see many beautiful sights and relax and have fun with everyone of andy's siblings! It was the first time in a long time that we had ALL done something together! These are not all the pictures because I forgot the camera on the first day. I will post more a little later.




The first night we got there, we went camping. Andy and I arrived around
11:30pm and it was COLD! Robert had gotten there earlier
and set up tents so we were able to go right to sleep. I was
worried about Jesse sleeping in the cold, but he only woke up
once, and other than that did great! Here are a few of the
morning pictures!
Robert just waking up:Auntie Lisa keeping jesse warm!
Dad keeping Jesse warm! The morning was very cold as well!
One of our first stops the second day was Mammoth. It
is a sulfur flat of color and water and it was beautiful. This is
a natural cone shaped out of who knows what...

Andy being andy. My camera was unable to do these pictures jusitice
but it was a beautiful sight!
I hardly ever had to carry Jesse and he was quite
spoiled the whole trip! Everyone wanted to carry him
so I didn't complain! We bought a back pack for him
to sit in and it saved us! This is his auntie tiffany carrying
him.
He was pretty happy! he stayed cool and
enjoyed the ride!

More of mammoth! It was beautiful!

The hike up was all up-hill so it was a little tiring. But
worth it of course. Everyone was just quiet while
they were hiking and were counting the steps to the top!
This is coming back down. There was a lot of us!
More beautiful colors!
Here is a picture of the lower yellowstone falls. Not the
bigger one, but the one that you can see closer up. It
was an awesome sight! We later went to a ledge
right over the falls (if you look closely you can see
people), but i forgot to take my camera!

It was a gorgeous day and well worth it!


Grandpa Summers and Jesse!
Upper Yellowstone falls. It is a way off, but was HUGE!
This is also part of the Grand Canyon of yellowstone,
so i was able to see many things I never had before!



We got a little bored when we were going
from sight to sight. :)

I love this picture of Jesse. He was so good
the whole trip!
