Our Summer Vacation

We've been having a fun summer.  Like any other summer, it seems to just fly by.  Here are some highlights, in no particular order!  Sorry about the pictures turned sideways, I couldn't get them to change for me.  

Lance built Ellie a sandbox, which she loves!


I can hardly get her out of it at the end of the day

We went on a hike while at Louis Lake, we planned to carry Ellie the 1 1/2miles, but she wanted to walk herself.

South Pass City, Wyoming

Flaming Gorge, Wyoming side, Chim. Rock
It was still pretty chilly here.

Crossing a bridge over the Wind River in the pouring rain!  
Sorry it's sideways, I couldn't get it to change.
First dino. museum trip in Thermopollis, Wyoming
First trip down a slide by herself!
First trip down a slide with daddy!
The air show with daddy all geared up.
These are just some of our fun summer family adventures.  We hope to have some more that we can share.  As you can tell, we don't have really exciting vacation to exotic places.  We're campers and hikers and that's what we love.  Getting away and seeing new and beautiful places that you can't always get to in a car.  No phones, no internet, no TV.  That's a vacation for us.  Ellie is a great little camper and loves to be outside.  Hope you're all having wonderful summers too.
