Jackson Hole Wyoming

We are having such a great time being close to so many beautiful places to visit. This weekend we went to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I love that town. We took the camper and stayed in Star Valley Wyoming.

(On a side note, we got the camper so that we could have cheap family trips while Rick is doing his fellowship. We had to fill the car up 5 times!!!! That is NOT cheap, and it cost $40 a night at the RV park - again, that doesn't seem all that cheap - fun but not cheap.)


Lydia felt pretty sick the first morning, but was back to herself in the afternoon. So we spent most of the day in Jackson Hole.

We came across this store with all of the animals. It was really amazing to be that close to a standing grizzly and elk - slightly intimidating. 


We spent a huge chunk of the day at a park with a little stream.(Lincoln was in heaven.)

Then we hiked around the mountain at Grand Teton Village. Most of these pictures were taken by Lydia - not too bad. I forgot how much I LOVE the mountains. There were so many streams, wildflowers and amazing smells.

I think my favorite part of the trip was sharing something that Rick and I love so much with our kids. They really enjoyed it, and even our 13-year old Cora kept saying how much she like Jackson. (That is even with me asking her to shut off her ipod for the drive .... impressive!) Brig LOVED the gun shoot out (Kate hated it), Lincoln loved the streams and the little girls loved the animals. Overall - really successful!
